Abstract

The correlators of currents {Mathematical expression}Q, γvγ5Q, q and Q being correspondingly light and heavy quark fields, in hot hadronic matter are investigated by means of finite temperature QCD sum rules. At T≳ 100 MeV the modification of the effective spectrum parameters takes place, similar to that found earlier in the correlators of light quark currents. At T≳150 MeV the form of the spectrum is obtained, which indicates an appearance in hadronic matter of quasifree quarks with nonzero mass being fixed by the value of the quark condensate 〈 {Mathematical expression}q〉 (T). © 1987 Springer-Verlag.

QCD matter

Quark matter or QCD matter (quantum chromodynamic) refers to any of a number of hypothetical phases of matter whose degrees of freedom include quarks and gluons, of which the prominent example is quark-gluon plasma. Several series of conferences in 2019, 2020, and 2021 were devoted to this topic. Quarks are liberated into quark matter at extremely high temperatures and/or densities, and some of them are still only theoretical as they require conditions so extreme that they cannot be produced in any laboratory, especially not at equilibrium conditions.

Quark–gluon plasma

Quark–gluon plasma (or QGP and quark soup) is an interacting localized assembly of quarks and gluons at thermal (local kinetic) and (close to) chemical (abundance) equilibrium. The word plasma signals that free color charges are allowed. In a 1987 summary, Léon van Hove pointed out the equivalence of the three terms: quark gluon plasma, quark matter and a new state of matter.

Quark

A quark (kwɔːrk,_kwɑːrk) is a type of elementary particle and a fundamental constituent of matter. Quarks combine to form composite particles called hadrons, the most stable of which are protons and neutrons, the components of atomic nuclei. All commonly observable matter is composed of up quarks, down quarks and electrons. Owing to a phenomenon known as color confinement, quarks are never found in isolation; they can be found only within hadrons, which include baryons (such as protons and neutrons) and mesons, or in quark–gluon plasmas.
