Anisotropic color superconductivity

Description

We discuss the possibility that in finite density QCD an anisotropic phase is realized. This case might arise for quarks with different chemical potential and/or different masses. In this phase crystalline structures may be formed. We consider this possibility and we describe, in the context of an effective Lagrangian, the corresponding phonons as the Nambu-Goldstone bosons associated to the breaking of the space symmetries.
