Quark Deconfinement

Quark Deconfinement is a theoretical phase transition in quantum chromodynamics wherein quarks, normally confined within hadrons due to the strong interaction, are liberated into a deconfined state of matter at extremely high temperatures or energy densities, such as in the quark-gluon plasma.
