Chiral phase transition in baryon-dense matter with account of finite size effect

TL;DR

This paper explores chiral phase transitions in baryon-dense matter, emphasizing finite size effects and proposing experimental approaches for detection in upcoming nuclear physics experiments.

Contribution

It introduces a model of chiral phase transitions in nuclei that accounts for finite size effects and suggests experimental strategies for observing these transitions.

Findings

Finite size effects influence chiral phase transition signals.

Proposals for future NICA and CBM experiments to detect these transitions.

Abstract

We consider a model of chiral phase transitions in nuclei, suggested by T.D. Lee et al., and argue that such transitions may be seen in cumulative effect investigations. Finite-range effects arising from the smallness of the system are briefly discussed. Some general proposals for future NICA and CBM experiments are given.
