Friedberg-Lee model at finite temperature and density

The Friedberg-Lee model is studied at finite temperature and density. By using the finite temperature field theory, the effective potential of the Friedberg-Lee model and the bag constant B(T) and B(T,{mu}) have been calculated at different temperatures and densities. It is shown that there is a critical temperature T{sub C}{approx_equal}106.6 MeV when {mu}=0 MeV and a critical chemical potential {mu}{approx_equal}223.1 MeV for fixing the temperature at T=50 MeV. We also calculate the soliton solutions of the Friedberg-Lee model at finite temperature and density. It turns out that when T{{mu}{sub C}) the bag constant B(T)=0 MeV [or B(T,{mu})=0 MeV] and there is no soliton solution anymore, therefore, the confinement of quarks disappears quickly.
