Smeared gap equations in crystalline color superconductivity

arXiv:hep-ph/0509264 · doi:10.1063/1.2163778

Abstract

In the framework of HDET, we discuss an averaging procedure of the NJL quark-quark interaction lagrangian, treated in the mean field approximation, for the two flavor LOFF phase of QCD. This procedure gives results which are valid in domains where Ginzburg-Landau results may be questionable. We compute and compare the free energy for different LOFF crystalline structures.
