Anyon quarks and superconductivity

The statistical mechanics of a (2+1)-dimensional model of particles with fractional statistics is investigated. Two kinds of fractional statistics particles, anyon “quarks”, are involved and may form bound states, which in a dilute gas approximation corresponds to the standard anyon system. Some bas...

Description
Summary:The statistical mechanics of a (2+1)-dimensional model of particles with fractional statistics is investigated. Two kinds of fractional statistics particles, anyon “quarks”, are involved and may form bound states, which in a dilute gas approximation corresponds to the standard anyon system. Some basic properties of the anyon quark gas are discussed and it is argued qualitatively that the particle system exhibits a superconducting (or superfluid) phase for special values of the statistics parameter.
