A baryonic chemical potential (μb) is included in the linear sigma model at finite temperature. The effective mesonic potential is numerically calculated using the N-midpoint rule. The meson masses are investigated as functions of the temperature (T) at fixed value of baryonic chemical potential. The pressure and energy density are investigated as functions of temperature at fi…xed value of μb. The obtained results are in good agreement in comparison with other techniques. We conclude that the calculated effective potential successfully predicts the meson properties and thermodynamic properties at finite baryonic chemical potential.

A logarithmic potential is suggested to study the chiral phase transition, the critical temperature, and the meson masses at finite temperature and baryonic chemical potential. The logarithmic potential is based on some aspects of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) theory. The model has been solved in the mean-field approximation. We found that the behavior of meson masses takes a similar behavior as in the original sigma model and the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model. The critical temperature is reduced in comparison with the original sigma model and it is in good agreement with recent lattice QCD results. The chiral phase transition is crossover in the case of chiral explicit breaking symmetry. The Goldstone boson theorem is studied, in which the meson mass is massive and pion mass is massless at lower temperatures. Our conclusions indicate to the present model successfully predicts the phase transition as well as in the original quark sigma model and the Nambu–Jona–Lasinio model. A new advantage of the present model, the critical temperature is in good agreement with lattice QCD results at zero chemical potential. A condition of spontaneous breaking symmetry is necessary to satisfy the Goldstone theorem in the chiral limit.

Crossover Transition

We study the QCD phase diagram using the linear sigma model coupled to quarks. We compute the effective potential at finite temperature and quark chemical potential up to ring diagrams contribution. We show that, provided the values for the pseudo-critical temperature Tc = 155 MeV and critical baryon chemical potential μBc ≃ 1 GeV, together with the vacuum sigma and pion masses. The model couplings can be fixed and that these in turn help to locate the region where the crossover transition line becomes first order.

We use the linear sigma model coupled to quarks to compute the effective potential beyond the mean field approximation, including the contribution of the ring diagrams at finite temperature and baryon density. We determine the model couplings and use them to study the phase diagram in the baryon chemical potential-temperature plane and to locate the Critical End Point.

The SU(3) Polyakov linear-sigma model (PLSM) in mean-field approximation is utilized in analyzing the chiral condensates [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and the deconfinement order parameters [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], at finite isospin asymmetry. The bulk thermodynamics including pressure density, interaction measure, susceptibility and second-order correlations with baryon, strange and electric charge quantum numbers are studied in thermal and dense medium. The PLSM results are confronted to the available lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations. The excellent agreement obtained strengthens the reliability of fixing the PLSM parameters and therefore supports further predictions even beyond the scope of the lattice QCD numerical applicability. From the QCD phase structure at finite isospin chemical potential [Formula: see text], we find that the pseudocritical temperatures decrease with the increase in [Formula: see text]. We conclude that the QCD phase structure in [Formula: see text] plane seems to extend the one in [Formula: see text] plane.
