Abstract
In the large fermion mass limit of QCD at finite density the structure of t he partition function greatly simplifies and can be studied analytically. W e show that, contrary to general wisdom, the phase of the Dirac determinant is relevant only at finite temperature and can be neglected for zero tempe rature fields.
