Evolution of disoriented chiral condenstates is studied with the classical sigma model in 3+1 dimensions. By smoothly connecting a chiral symmetric solution of the formation period to a solution of the decay period, we obtain a complete…
Motivated by a recent work by Terashima (Phys. Rev. D60 084001), we revisit the fluctuation-dissipation (FD) relation between the dissipative coefficient of a detector and the vacuum noise of fields in curved spacetime. In an explicit…
Applying a Langevin description of the linear sigma model we investigate four different scenarios for the evolution of a disoriented chiral condensate: annealing or quench with initial conditions governed by effective `light' or physical…
We construct a model in which four dimensional chiral fermions arise on the boundaries of a five dimensional lattice with free boundary conditions in the fifth direction. The physical content is similar to Kaplan's model of domain wall…
We study the dynamics of domain growth when multipole moments of the order parameter are conserved. Following a quench into the ordered phase of the Ising model, the typical size of domains grows with time as $R(t) \sim t^{1/2}$ in the…
We explore the impact of dynamical friction on scales where the linear growth factor and the spherical collapse model can be applied and show its influence on the evolution of perturbations. In particular, considering smooth and clustering…

We consider the effective $1+1$-dimensional chiral theory describing fluctuations of the order parameter of the Disoriented Chiral Condensate (DCC) which can be formed in the central rapidity region in a relativistic nucleus-nucleus or…
It is unlikely to reach at high temperatures the state which is used as the starting point of DCC formation in the quenched approximation. The chiral symmetry is restored in the linear sigma model by Goldstone modes (pions), because such…
One key aspect of coarsening following a quench below the critical temperature is domain growth. For the non-conserved Ising model a power-law growth of domains of like spins with exponent $\alpha = 1/2$ is predicted. Including recent work,…
Using the O(4) linear $\sigma$ model, we address the topic of non-equilibrium relaxation of an inhomogeneous initial configuration due to quantum and thermal fluctuations. The space-time evolution of an inhomogeneous fluctuation of the…
We investigate the dynamical friction (DF) acting on circularly-moving perturbers in fuzzy dark matter (FDM) backgrounds. After condensation, FDM is described by a single wave function satisfying a Schr\"odinger-Poisson equation. An…
First, the chiral phase transition at nonzero temperature and baryon chemical potential is studied at mean field level in the sigma model that includes quark degrees of freedom explicitly. For small bare quark masses the critical point…
The finite temperature chiral condensate for 2+1 quark flavors is considered in the framework of the hadron resonance gas model. This requires some dynamical information, for which two models are employed: one based on the quark structure…
We construct a model of baryon diffusion which has the desired properties of causality and analyticity. The model also has the desired property of colored noise, meaning that the noise correlation function is not a Dirac delta function in…
We study domain wall fermions and their condensation in the D3/probe D7 system. A spatially dependent mass term for the N=2 hypermultiplet can be arranged to isolate distinct two component fermions on two 2+1 dimensional domain walls. We…
We model the evolution of the disoriented chiral condensate formed through both a sudden quench and through a phase transition with a metastable state of arbitrary disorientation . We show that the total multiplicity distributions of…
