A range of quantum field theoretical phenomena driven by external magnetic fields and their
applications in relativistic systems and quasirelativistic condensed matter ones, such as …

Matter at high density and low temperature is expected to be a color superconductor, which
is a degenerate Fermi gas of quarks with a condensate of Cooper pairs near the Fermi …

The current status of theoretical studies on the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase
diagram at finite temperature and baryon chemical potential is reviewed with special …

Investigations of deconfined quark matter within NJL-type models are reviewed, focusing on
the regime of low temperatures and “moderate” densities, which is not accessible by …

We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in
theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a …

This exhaustive survey is the result of a four year effort by many leading researchers in the
field to produce both a readable introduction and a yardstick for the many upcoming …

Inhomogeneous superconductivity arises when the species participating in the pairing
phenomenon have different Fermi surfaces with a large enough separation. In these …

Our current knowledge of the quark–gluon plasma in thermodynamical equilibrium is
reviewed. The phase diagram of strongly interacting matter is discussed, with emphasis on …

Important progress in understanding the behavior of hadronic matter at high density has
been achieved recently, by adapting the techniques of condensed matter theory. At …

We discuss the basic ideas of relativistic transport models used for the interpretation and
description of experimental data from heavy-ion collisions at high collision energies. We …
