Using Wigner distributions, the authors find that the fraction of baryons with quark phase-space occupancy above the Pauli bound tends to a constant for heavy nuclei, supporting the plausibility of low-momentum suppression.

abstract
The single-flavor excluded-volume model based on the effective size of baryons reproduces the hard-soft density evolution of the equation of state (EoS) required by the recent studies of GW170817. This phenomenological model basically realizes the concept of quarkyonic matter which is introduced from large-$N_{c}$ gauge theory for dense matter. Enhanced nucleon interactions and dynamically generated quark degrees of freedom can reproduce the hard-soft evolution of the EoS. In this paper, we extend the excluded-volume model to a three-flavor system by considering electromagnetic charge and possible weak equilibrium in order to obtain a proper description for the hard-soft behavior of the EoS inferred from the gravitational waves observations.

Quark Phase Space Distributions in Nuclei
Using Wigner distributions, the authors find that the fraction of baryons with quark phase-space occupancy above the Pauli bound tends to a constant for heavy nuclei, supporting the plausibility of low-momentum suppression.
