Quarkyonic matter and neutron stars

L McLerran, S Reddy - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
We consider quarkyonic matter to naturally explain the observed properties of neutron stars.
We argue that such matter might exist at densities close to that of nuclear matter, and at the …

QCD at finite temperature and chemical potential from Dyson–Schwinger equations
