Description
The temperature dependence of the thermodynamic potential of quantum
chromodynamics (QCD), the specific heat, and the quark effective mass are calculated for
imbalanced quark matter in the limit of a large number of quark flavors (large-NF), which
corresponds to the random-phase approximation. Also a generalization of the relativistic
Landau effective-mass relation in the imbalanced case is given, which is then applied to
this thermodynamic potential.
