We determine the location of the second-order end-point of the line of the first-order chiral phase transition in three-flavor QCD at vanishing baryon chemical potential (ยต B ). Using multiparameter reweighting we determine the ยต B -dependence of the transition line. With an ansatz inspired by chira

We investigate a nonlocal chiral quark model with separable 4-fermion interaction for the case of U (3) flavor symmetry and show that strange quark matter is unlikely to occur in a large enough volume of a compact star to entail remarkable observational consequences. The phase diagram in the two-fla
At high baryon number density, it has been proposed that a new phase of QCD matter controls the physics. This matter is confining but can have densities much larger than ฮ 3 QCD . Its existence is argued from large N c approximations, and model computations. It is approximately chirally symmetric.
