Mass right around usMass right around us
•Proton/Neutron Mass=938/940 MeV
Constituents: Quarks and gluons

Sum of “current-quark” masses ≈ 10 MeV
Where do ~ 99% of the mass come from?

QCD Answer QCD Answer
“ Energy stored in the motion of the (nearly) massless quarks and energy in massless gluons that connect them”
Proton mass ≈ 1 GeV
“Mass without mass”
• Technically, “chiral symmetry spontaneously broken SB)”
• QCD on lattice explains the proton mass within ~ 10% .

The QuestionThe Question
If the mass is generated by dynamical“dressing,” can it be made to disappear by“undressing” in the laboratories ?
Or can one dial the mass to zero?
Yes! through dialing thecondensate to zero

Effective Field TheoriesEffective Field Theories
QCD cannot address directly the problem ofgoing toward the critical point Tc/nc, so weneed to resort to effective field theories
Tools at our disposal: • NLNonlinear sigma model with pseudo- Goldstone bosons (K, …) • HLS: Hidden local symmetry model with light vectors (K*, …)etc …
![Page 11: New States of Strongly Interacting Astrophysical Matter](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56814376550346895daff624/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
In Favor of HLSIn Favor of HLS• AdS/QCD indicates a 5-D pure gauge theory giving in 4-D a tower of vector mesons and a multiplet of Goldstone bosons describing QCD in nonperturbative regime• Baryons emerge as skyrmions to complete the degrees of freedom required• With a suitable truncation and in the chiral limit (quark masses=0), the theory can arrive at the critical point as a fixed point known as “Vector Manifestation (VM)”

Predictions with HLSPredictions with HLS
As <qq>→ 0, i.e., n (or T)→ nc (or Tc)
Theory well defined at this limit! Hidden gauge coupling g <qq> → 0 Pion decay constant fF(<qq>) → 0 Even away from the limit, hadron mass (except for ’s) satisfies “BR scaling”; e.g., in density m(n)/m(0) ≈ fn)/ffor n ≤ n0
≈ g(n)/g(0) for n > n0
where n0 = 0.16 fm-3 nuclear matter

For a suitable set of parameters, kaon condensation occurs at a density slightly above that of the nugget S0 (3115) . It has one proton and two neutrons per each condensed kaon just like the S0 (pnnK-) .

Lattice calculation & RHIC experiments indicate: Not a gasof quarks and gluons but
• Possibly an “ideal” liquid with viscosity/entropy /s ~ 1/4*, ~ 400 times smaller than (/s)water.
• A strongly coupled system much like black hole horizons
• Just above TC , strongly bound states of light a1
saturate the entropy.
