The equation of state of a baryon-symmetric hadronic matter with hard-sphere interactions is studied. It is assumed that mesons are point-like, but baryons and antibaryons have the same hard-core radius rB. Three possibilities are…
From a direct calculation of the anomalous Hall conductivity and an effective electromagnetic action obtained via Fujikawa's chiral rotation technique, we conclude that an axionic field theory with a non-quantized coefficient describes the…
We discuss the finite temperature extension of the anomalous Wess-Zumino -Witten lagrangian. The finite temperature S^1\times S^3 compactification makes a structure in disconnected sectors, corresponding to different baryon numbers appear…
Macromolecules, when immersed in a polar solvent like water, become charged by a fixed surface charge density which is compensated by ``counter-ions'' moving out of the surface. Such classical particle systems exhibit poor screening…
The Poisson-Boltzmann approach gives asymptotically exact counter-ion density profiles around charged objects in the weak-coupling limit of low valency and high temperature. In this paper we derive, using field-theoretic methods, a theory…

A Finite Energy QCD sum rule at non-zero temperature is used to determine the $q^2$- and the T-dependence of the $\rho \pi \pi$ vertex function in the space-like region. A comparison with an independent QCD determination of the…
This dissertation reports our investigation into the existence of anyons, which interpolate between bosons and fermions, in light of the Symmetrization Postulate, which states that only the two extremes exist. The Symmetrization Postulate…
We investigate the dynamical possibility for the formation of a transient new coherent condition of matter in high--energy hadronic collisions. The coherent bosonic amplitude is characterized by a non--zero momentum and is sustained by $P…
Identifying experimental signatures of anyons, which exhibit fractional exchange statistics, remains a central challenge in the study of two-dimensional topologically ordered systems. Previous theoretical work has shown that the threshold…
The covariant propagator of a fermion with intrinsic magnetic moment interacting with a uniform external magnetic field is presented for finite temperature and baryonic density. The case of a scalar boson is also considered. The final…
We study the pion velocity at the critical temperature of chiral symmetry restoration in QCD. Starting from the premise that the bare effective field theory is to be defined from the underlying QCD, we incorporate the effects of Lorentz…
We study the theory of non-relativistic matter with non-Abelian $U(2)$ Chern-Simons gauge interaction in $(2+1)$ dimensions. We adopt the mean field approximation in the current-algebra formulation already applied to the Abelian anyons. We…
Shot-noise of electrons that are transmitted with probability $T$ through a quantum point contact (biased at a voltage $V_0$) leads to a fluctuating current that in turn emits radiation in the microwave regime. By calculating the Fano…
Low-dimensional quantum systems can host anyons, particles with exchange statistics that are neither bosonic nor fermionic. Despite indications of a wealth of exotic phenomena, the physics of anyons in one dimension (1D) remains largely…
We show that the N\'eel states of two-dimensional antiferromagnets have low energy vector boson excitations in the vicinity of deconfined quantum critical points. We compute the universal damping of these excitations arising from spin-wave…
