Abstract: (Elsevier)

Nuclear matter is modeled directly in the constituent quark coordinates. A many-body string flip potential is used which confines quarks, allows hadrons to separate and is symmetric in all quark coordinates. Variational Monte Carlo results are presented for the energy, wave function and quark correlation function of nuclear and quark matter for various densities. These show how quark clustering decreases with density. A percolation phase transition from nuclear to quark matter is observed which is characterized by a dramatic rearrangement of strings.
