Abstract

The equation of state of baryon-rich quark matter is studied within the SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with flavor-mixing interaction. Possible bound states (strangelets) and chiral phase transitions in this matter are investigated at various values of the strangeness fraction r s. Model predictions are very sensitive to the ratio of the vector and scalar coupling constants, ξ=G V/G S. At ξ=0.5 and zero temperature, the binding energy takes a maximum value of about 15 MeV per baryon at r s⋍0.4. Such strangelets are negatively charged and have typical lifetimes of about 10−7s. Calculations are performed at finite temperatures as well. According to these calculations, bound states exist up to temperatures of about 15 MeV. The model predicts a first-order chiral phase transition at finite baryon densities. The parameters of this phase transition are calculated as functions of r s.
