The QCD free energy can be studied by dimensional reduction to a three-dimensional (3d) effective theory, whereby non-perturbative lattice simulations become less demanding. To connect to the original QCD a perturbative matching computation…

Perturbation theory (PT) is often used to model statistical observables capturing the translation and rotation-invariant information in cosmological density fields. PT produces higher-order corrections by integration over linear statistics…
Using the imaginary time formalism in thermal field theory, we derive running coupling constant and running mass in two loop order. In the process, we express the imaginary time formalism of Feynman diagrams as the summation of non-thermal…
When computed to one-loop order in resummed perturbation theory, the non-abelian Debye mass appears to be logarithmically sensitive to the magnetic scale $g^2T$. More generally, we show that in higher orders power-like infrared divergences…
