Many-particle QED is applied to kinetic theory of radiative processes in many- component plasmas with relativistic electrons and nonrelativistic heavy particles. Within the framework of nonequilibrium Green's function technique, transport…
In this paper we show, for the first time, that charged-hadron masses can be calculated on the lattice without relying on gauge fixing at any stage of the calculations. In our simulations we follow a recent proposal and formulate full…
Gribov's observation that global gauge fixing is impossible has led to suggestions that there may be a deep connection between gauge-fixing and confinement. We find an unexpected relation between the topological non-triviality of the gauge…

The standard S-matrix formulation cannot generally be used in the treatment of atomic scattering processes, involving bound-state QED effects, due to the special type of singularity that can here appear. This type of singularity can be…
We present a study of the IR behaviour of a three-dimensional super-renormalisable quantum field theory (QFT) consisting of a scalar field in the adjoint of $SU(N)$ with a $\varphi^4$ interaction. A bare mass is required for the theory to…

We discuss aspects of magnetically charged black holes in the Standard Model. For a range of charges, we argue that the electroweak symmetry is restored in the near horizon region. The extent of this phase can be macroscopic. If $Q$ is the…

We calculate the spin and charge dynamical susceptibilities of a strongly correlated impurity model in a renormalised perturbation theory. The irreducible for vertices for the quasiparticle scattering are deduced from the renormalised…
Statistical fluctuations of the nuclear ground state energies are estimated using shell model calculations in which particles in the valence shells interact through well defined forces, and are coupled to an upper shell governed by random…

We consider a charged quantum particle in a random magnetic field with Gaussian, delta-correlated statistics. We show that although the single particle properties are peculiar, two particle quantities such as the diffusion constant can be…
It is shown that an alternative to the standard scalar QED is possible. In this new version there is only global gauge invariance as far as the charged scalar fields are concerned although local gauge invariance is kept for the…
