Two-flavor chiral perturbation theory at nonzero isospin: pion condensation at zero temperature

Abstract In this paper, we calculate the equation of state of two-flavor finite isospin chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order in the pion-condensed phase at zero temperature. We show that the transition from the vacuum phase to a Bose-condensed phase is of second order. While the tree-...
