Pairing Phase Transitions of Matter under Rotation

Understand

The phases and properties of matter under global rotation have attracted much interest recently.

• In this paper we investigate the pairing phenomena in a system of fermions under the presence of rotation.
• We find that there is a generic suppression effect on pairing states with zero angular momentum.
• We demonstrate this effect with the chiral condensation and the color superconductivity in hot dense QCD matter as explicit examples.
