The Nonabelian Plasma is Chaotic

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2025-05-29 v3

Abstract

Nonabelian gauge theories are chaotic in the classical limit. We discuss new evidence from SU(2) lattice gauge theory that they are also chaotic at the quantum level. We also describe possible future studies aimed at discovering the consequences of this insight.
