It involves the resolution of a \"dichotomy problem\" with the help of the hidden local vector bosons $\\rho$ and $\\omega$ and scale symmetry dilaton $\\chi$ \"dual\" to the quarks and gluons of QCD, and offers the possibility, exploiting the Cheshire Cat Principle, to unify the skyrmion structure (for $N_f\\geq 2$) and the fractional quantum Hall droplet (\"pancake\" or \"pita\") structure of the flavor-singlet baryon (for $N_f=1$) and to explore how the baryonic matter could behave as density goes beyond the normal nuclear matter density. Possible impact on the properties of massive compact stars is discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-04-20T06:40:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dense baryonic matter", "hadron-quark duality", "fractionalized quasiparticles", "normal nuclear matter density", "hidden local vector bosons" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
