The task of a first principles theoretical calculation of the rate of gas to liquid nucleation has remained largely incomplete despite the existence of reliable results from unbiased simulation studies at large supersaturation. Although the…

Saturation properties and liquid-gas phase transition of nucleus are analysed in the framework of Hatree-Fock theory. We modify Hill-Wheller formula with a finite-size-effect parameter by fitting the zero-temperature properties of nucleus.…

For realistic values of the Higgs boson mass the high temperature electroweak phase transition cannot be described perturbatively. The symmetric phase is governed by a strongly interacting $SU(2)$ gauge theory. Typical masses of excitations…

Recently, the possibility of quantum simulation of dynamical gauge fields was pointed out by using a system of cold atoms trapped on each link in an optical lattice. However, to implement exact local gauge invariance, fine-tuning the…

We study the effective matrix model for for gauge fields and fermions on a quantum computer. We use the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) using IBM QISKit for the effective matrix model for SU(2) and SU(3) including fermions in the…

In this paper we develop a gapless theory of BEC which can be applied to both trapped and homogeneous gases at zero and finite temperature. The many-body Hamiltonian for the system is written in a form which is approximately quadratic with…

Nucleon effective masses are studied in the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock many-body approach at finite temperature. Self-consistent calculations using the Argonne $V_{18}$ interaction including microscopic three-body forces are…

We revisit classical nucleation theory (CNT) for the homogeneous bubble nucleation rate and improve the classical formula using a new prefactor in the nucleation rate. Most of the previous theoretical studies have used the constant…

We discuss an alternative to the Higgs mechanism which leads to gauge invariant masses for the electroweak bosons. The key idea is to reformulate the gauge invariance principle which, instead of being applied as usual at the level of the…

We use our recently proposed algebraic approach for calculating the heat kernel associated with the Laplace operator to calculate the one-loop effective action in the non-Abelian gauge theory. We consider the most general case of arbitrary…

We study bubble-wall dynamics in cosmological first-order phase transitions in a two-scalar-field model, where the wall is formed by $\phi$ and an additional real scalar $s$ couples through a portal interaction. We evolve the coupled…

Using the model of hexagonal clusters we express the surface, curvature and Gauss curvature coefficients of the nuclear binding energy in terms of its bulk coefficient. Using the derived values of these coefficients and a single fitting…

The dynamics of phase transitions plays a crucial r\^ole in the so-called interface between high energy particle physics and cosmology. Many of the interesting results generated during the last fifteen years or so rely on simplified…

Thermal effects in the broken phase of the electroweak theory are studied in the strongly interacting Higgs boson limit. In that limit and at tree level the bosonic sector of the theory is a gauged non-linear sigma model. The associated…

I present a three-dimensional effective theory that describes the high-temperature equilibrium behavior of the SU(5) theory accurately, but is much easier to study using non-perturbative methods than the original four-dimensional one. The…

We determine the contribution of nontrivial vacuum (topological) excitations, more specifically vortex--strings of the Abelian Higgs model in 3+1 dimensions, to the functional partition function. By expressing the original action in terms…

One of the key observables in a gravitational wave power spectrum from a first order phase transition in the early Universe is the mean bubble spacing, which depends on the rate of nucleation of bubbles of the stable phase, as well as the…

Under the Ansatz that the occupation times of a system with finitely many states are given by the Gibbs distribution, an effective temperature is uniquely determined (up to a choice of scale), and may be computed de novo, without any…

The deconfining transition in non-Abelian gauge theory is known to occur by a condensation of Wilson lines. By expanding around an appropriate Wilson line background, it is possible at large $N$ to analytically continue the confining phase…

I try to explain some recent progress in understanding the non-perturbative dynamics of hot non-Abelian gauge theories. The non-perturbative physics is due to soft spatial momenta $|\vec{p}|\sim g^2 T$ where $g$ is the gauge coupling and…
