Perturbative Hot Gauge Theories - Recent Results

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Current results in high temperature gauge theories obtained in the context of the perturbative method of resumming hard thermal loops are reviewed. Beyond leading order properties of the gluon excitation, and the recent (controversial) calculations of the damping rates are discussed. QCD predictions on plasma signatures are exemplified by the thermal production rates of energetic as well as soft photons.
