Hard thermal loops describe how soft gauge fields are screened and damped in hot plasmas. As such they are used to calculate transport coefficients, Sphaleron rates, equations of state, and particle production. However, most calculations…

An algorithm to construct analytic approximations to two-loop diagrams describing their behaviour at small non-zero thresholds is discussed. For some special cases (involving two different-scale mass parameters), several terms of the…

We consider, in more details than it was done previously, the effective low-energy behavior in the quantum theory of a light scalar field coupled to another scalar with much larger mass. The main target of our work is an IR decoupling of…
The renormalization of effective potentials for the noncommutative scalar field theory at high temperature are investigated to the two-loop approximation. The Feynman diagrams in evaluating the effective potential may be classified into two…
The problem of describing low-energy two-body scattering for systems with two open channels with different thresholds is addressed in the context of an effective field theory. In particular, the problem where the threshold is unnaturally…
We study the self-energies of weakly interacting scalar fields in de Sitter space with one field much lighter than the Hubble scale. We argue that self-energies drastically simplify in this light limit. We illustrate this in theories with…
Detailed description of the calculation of the 2-loop self-energy for a scalar particle is presented. By employing a simple sector decomposition method, the ultraviolet divergent part is efficiently separated from the finite part. The…
The energy spectrum of two short-range interacting particles in a harmonic potential trap has previously been related to free-space scattering phase shifts. But the existing formula for this purpose is exact only in the limit of an…
