Abstract
Starting from a textbook result, the nearest-neighbor distribution of particles in an ideal gas, we develop estimates for the probability with which quarks in a mixed , gas are more strongly attracted to the nearest , potentially forming a diquark, than to the nearest . Generic probabilities lie in the range of tens of percent, with values in the several percent range even under extreme assumptions favoring over attraction.
