Quark mass density- and temperature- dependent model for bulk strange quark matter

It is shown that the quark mass density-dependent model can not be used to explain the process of the quark deconfinement phase transition because the quark confinement is permanent in this model. A quark mass density- and temperature-dependent model in which the quark confinement is impermanent has been suggested. We argue that the vacuum energy density B is a function of temperature. The dynamical and thermodynamical properties of bulk strange quark matter for quark mass density- and temperature-dependent model are discussed.Comment: 6 Pages, 5 Figures. To be published on Phys.

A quark meson coupling model with density- and temperature- dependent quark masses

Based on the quark mass density- and temperature- dependent model we suggest a model for nuclear matter where the meson field is introduced to be directly coupled to the quarks. The dynamic formation of the nucleon bag, the saturation properties of nuclear matter as well as equation of state for this model are studies.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure

Wave dynamics of a six-dimensional black hole localized on a tensional three-brane

We study the quasinormal modes and the late-time tail behavior of scalar perturbation in the background of a black hole localized on a tensional three-brane in a world with two large extra dimensions. We find that finite brane tension modifies the standard results in the wave dynamics for the case of a black hole on a brane with completely negligible tension. We argue that the wave dynamics contains the imprint of the extra dimensions.Comment: revised version, 10 pages, 1 table and 2 figures. Accepted for publication in Phys. Lett.
