High-density QCD: The effects of strangeness

I discuss the zero temperature phase diagram of QCD, as a function of baryon density and strange quark mass. The noteworthy points are that at sufficiently high density chiral symmetry is always restored, and at low strange quark mass there need be no phase transition between nuclear matter and quark matter. I comment on the possibility that introducing a strange quark may make it easier to see finite-density physics on the lattice.
