Nuclear matter as an MIT bag crystal

An MIT bag crystal model of nuclear matter is formulated. The energy bands of the quarks are calculated as a function of the overlap between adjacent bags. The authors find a clear indication of substantial overlap. Accordingly, infinite nuclear matter is more similar to a quark gas than to a nucleonic structure.
