In the vacuum of ordinary QCD, the lightest hadron is the pion, which is an isotriplet pseudoscalar meson. This can be shown using QCD inequalities, if we assume that the theory possesses gamma_5 Hermiticity and that disconnected diagrams do not contribute. However, in the finite-density regime, gamma_5 Hermiticity is lost, and this argument no longer holds. In contrast, in two-color QCD, an...
