New phases of QCD at finite density
Los Alamos National Laboratory
Abstract
FAIR motivates predictions for dense QCD, where non-Hermitian Dirac operators cause the lattice sign problem. Analytic and numerical methods from non-Hermitian physics reveal how CK symmetry produces a moat regime near a critical point. The talk considers its temperature-density range and experimental signatures.
