QCD vacuum replicas may be metastable: A model study of the stability of QCD vacuum replicas
A metastable phase has important physical implications, since it may form vacuum bubbles detectable experimentally, whereas an unstable vacuum instantly explodes. It is well known, due to chiral symmetry breaking, there are at least two very different QCD vacua. At T=0, and in the true vacuum, the s...
