Scalar-Quark Systems and Chimera Hadrons in SU(3)_c Lattice QCD
Light scalar-quarks \phi (colored scalar particles or idealized diquarks) and
their color-singlet hadronic states are studied with quenched SU(3)_c lattice
QCD in terms of mass generation in strong interaction without chiral symmetry
breaking. We investigate ``scalar-quark mesons'' \phi^\dagger \phi and
``scalar-quark baryons'' \phi\phi\phi which are the bound states of
scalar-quarks \phi. We also investigate the bound states of scalar-quarks \phi
and quarks \psi, i.e., \phi^\dagger \psi, \psi\psi\phi and \phi\phi\psi, which
we name ``chimera hadrons''. All the new-type hadrons including \phi are found
to have a large mass even for zero bare scalar-quark mass m_\phi=0 at
a^{-1}\simeq 1GeV. We find that the constituent scalar-quark and quark picture
is satisfied for all the new-type hadrons. Namely, the mass of the new-type
hadron composed of m \phi's and n \psi's, M_{{m}\phi+{n}\psi}, satisfies
M_{{m}\phi+{n}\psi}\simeq {m} M_\phi +{n} M_\psi, where M_\phi and M_\psi are
the constituent scalar-quark and quark mass, respectively. M_\phi at m_\phi=0
estimated from these new-type hadrons is 1.5-1.6GeV, which is larger than that
of light quarks, M_\psi\simeq 400{\rm MeV}. Therefore, in the systems of
scalar-quark hadrons and chimera hadrons, scalar-quarks acquire large mass due
to large quantum corrections by gluons. Together with other evidences of mass
generations of glueballs and charmonia, we conjecture that all colored
particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluon
effects.Comment: 9 pages, 9 figure
Chiral phase transition at high temperature in the QCD-like gauge theory
The chiral phase transition at high temperature is investigated using the
effect ive potential in the framework of the QCD-like gauge theory with a
variational a pproach. We have a second order phase transition at MeV.
We also investigate numerically the temperature dependence of condensate,
a nd (coefficient of the quadratic term in the effective
potential) and es timate the critical exponents of these quantities.Comment: 12 pages,7 figure
Anomaly-Free Supersymmetric SO(2N+2)/U(N+1) sigma-Model Based on the SO(2N+1) Lie Algebra of the Fermion Operators
The extended supersymmetric (SUSY) sigma-model has been proposed on the bases
of SO(2N+1) Lie algebra spanned by fermion annihilation-creation operators and
pair operators. The canonical transformation, extension of an SO(2N) Bogoliubov
transformation to an SO(2N+1) group, is introduced. Embedding the SO(2N+1)
group into an SO(2N+2) group and using SO(2N+2)/U(N+1) coset variables, we have
investigated the SUSY sigma-model on the Kaehler manifold, the coset space
SO(2N+2)/U(N+1). We have constructed the Killing potential, extension of the
potential in the SO(2N)/U(N) coset space to that in the SO(2N+2)/U(N+1) coset
space. It is equivalent to the generalized density matrix whose diagonal-block
part is related to a reduced scalar potential with a Fayet-Ilipoulos term. The
f-deformed reduced scalar potential is optimized with respect to vacuum
expectation value of the sigma-model fields and a solution for one of the
SO(2N+1) group parameters has been obtained. The solution, however, is only a
small part of all solutions obtained from anomaly-free SUSY coset models. To
construct the coset models consistently, we must embed a coset coordinate in an
anomaly-free spinor representation (rep) of SO(2N+2) group and give
corresponding Kaehler and Killing potentials for an anomaly-free
SO(2N+2)/U(N+1) model based on each positive chiral spinor rep. Using such
mathematical manipulation we construct successfully the anomaly-free
SO(2N+2)/U(N+1) SUSY sigma-model and investigate new aspects which have never
been seen in the SUSY sigma-model on the Kaehler coset space SO(2N)/U(N). We
reach a f-deformed reduced scalar potential. It is minimized with respect to
the vacuum expectation value of anomaly-free SUSY sigma-model fields. Thus we
find an interesting f-deformed solution very different from the previous
solution for an anomaly-free SO(2.5+2)/(SU(5+1)*U(1)) SUSY sigma-model.Comment: 24 pages, no fiure
Universality, the QCD critical/tricritical point and the quark number susceptibility
The quark number susceptibility near the QCD critical end-point (CEP), the
tricritical point (TCP) and the O(4) critical line at finite temperature and
quark chemical potential is investigated. Based on the universality argument
and numerical model calculations we propose a possibility that the hidden
tricritical point strongly affects the critical phenomena around the critical
end-point. We made a semi-quantitative study of the quark number susceptibility
near CEP/TCP for several quark masses on the basis of the
Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis (CJT) potential for QCD in the improved-ladder
approximation. The results show that the susceptibility is enhanced in a wide
region around CEP inside which the critical exponent gradually changes from
that of CEP to that of TCP, indicating a crossover of different universality
classes.Comment: 18 pages, 10 figure
Calculation of the Chiral Lagrangian Coefficients from the Underlying Theory of QCD: A Simple Approach
We calculate the coefficients in the chiral Lagrangian approximately from QCD
based on a previous study of deriving the chiral Lagrangian from the first
principles of QCD in which the chiral Lagrangian coefficients are defined in
terms of certain Green's functions in QCD. We first show that, in the large
N(c)-limit, the anomaly part contributions to the coefficients are exactly
cancelled by certain terms in the normal part contributions, and the final
results of the coefficients only concern the remaining normal part
contributions depending on QCD interactions. We then do the calculation in a
simple approach with the approximations of taking the large-N(c) limit, the
leading order in dynamical perturbation theory, and the improved ladder
approximation, thereby the relevant Green's functions are expressed in terms of
the quark self energy. By solving the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the quark
self energy, we obtain the approximate QCD predicted coefficients and the quark
condensate which are consistent with the experimental values.Comment: Further typos corrected, to appear in Phys. Rev.
Current quark mass effects on chiral phase transition of QCD in the improved ladder approximation
Current quark mass effects on the chiral phase transition of QCD is studied
in the improved ladder approximation. An infrared behavior of the gluon
propagator is modified in terms of an effective running coupling. The analysis
is based on a composite operator formalism and a variational approach. We use
the Schwinger-Dyson equation to give a ``normalization condition'' for the
Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis effective potential and to isolate the ultraviolet
divergence which appears in an expression for the quark-antiquark condensate.
We study the current quark mass effects on the order parameter at zero
temperature and density. We then calculate the effective potential at finite
temperature and density and investigate the current quark mass effects on the
chiral phase transition. We find a smooth crossover for , and a
first-order phase transition for , T=0. Critical exponents are also
studied and our model gives the classical mean-field values. We also study the
temperature dependence of masses of scalar and pseudoscalar bosons. A critical
end point in the - plane is found at MeV,
MeV.Comment: 19 pages, 13 figure
