Dissociation of Hadrons in Quark Matter Within a Finite-Temperature Field-Theory Approach on the Light Front

摘要

We present a relativistic three-body equation to investigate the properties of nucleons in hot and dense nuclear/quark matter. Within the light-front approach we utilize a zero-range interaction to study the three-body dynamics. The relativistic in-medium equation is derived within a systematic Dyson equation approach that includes the dominant medium effects due to Pauli blocking and self-energy corrections. We present the in-medium nucleon mass and calculate the dissociation of the three-body system.
