The dynamics of soft ($|\vec{p}|\sim g^2 T$) non-Abelian gauge fields at finite temperature is non-perturbative. The effective theory for the soft scale is determined by diagrams with external momenta $p_0\lsim g^2 T$, $|\vec{p}|\sim g^2 T$…
The dynamics of soft ($|\vec{p}|\sim g^2 T$) non-Abelian gauge fields at finite temperature is non-perturbative. The effective theory for the soft fields can be obtained by first integrating out the momentum scale T, which yields the well…
In hot non-Abelian gauge theories, processes characterized by the momentum scale $g^2 T$ (such as electroweak baryon number violation in the very early universe) are non-perturbative. An effective theory for the soft ($|\vec{p}|\sim g^2 T$)…
We study the one-loop contributions of matter and radiation to the gravitational polarization tensor at finite temperatures. Using the analytically continued imaginary-time formalism, the contribution of matter is explicitly given to…
The approach which relates thermal Green functions to forward scattering amplitudes of on-shell thermal particles is applied to the calculation of the gluon self-energy, in a class of temporal gauges. We show to all orders that, unlike the…
In the framework of SU(2) gluodynamics, we derive the tensor structure of the neutral gluon polarization tensor in an Abelian homogeneous magnetic field at finite temperature and calculate it in one-loop approximation in the Lorentz…
We use an auxiliary field construction to discuss the hard thermal loop effective action associated with massless thermal SU(N) QCD interacting with a weak gravitational field. It is demonstrated that the previous attempt to derive this…
Anisotropic systems of quarks and gluons, which at least for sufficiently short space-time intervals can be treated as homogeneous and static, are considered. The gluon polarization tensor of such a system is explicitly computed within the…
We present an analytic method to compute the one-loop magnetic correction to the gluon polarization tensor starting from the Landau-level representation of the quark propagator in the presence of an external magnetic field. We show that the…
We compute the next-to-leading order (NLO) hard correction to the gluon self-energy tensor with arbitrary soft momenta in a hot and/or dense weakly coupled plasma in Quantum Chromodynamics. Our diagrammatic computations of the two-loop and…
Within the framework of the hard thermal loop effective theory we derive a system of Boltzmann-like kinetic equations taking into account the simplest processes of nonlinear interaction of soft fermionic and bosonic QCD plasma excitations:…
We consider time dependent correlation functions of non-abelian gauge fields at finite temperature. An effective theory for the soft ($p\sim g^2 T$) field modes is derived by integrating out the field modes with momenta of order $T$ and of…
An effective theory for the soft field modes in hot QCD has been obtained recently by integrating out the field modes of momenta of order T and g T. The mean hard particle distribution obeys a transport equation with a collision term. The…
This chapter reviews the construction of ``soft-collinear gravity'', the effective field theory which describes the interaction of collinear and soft gravitons with matter (and themselves), to all orders in the soft-collinear power…
We study the graviton self-energy function in a general gauge, using a hard thermal loop expansion which includes terms proportional to T^4, T^2 and log(T). We verify explicitly the gauge independence of the leading T^4 term and obtain a…
Hard thermal loops play a central role in the theory of long wavelength excitations of a quark-gluon plasma. We show in this paper how our recent derivation of their generating functional from the Dyson-Schwinger equations sheds light on…
The effective theory for the dynamics of hot non-Abelian gauge fields with spatial momenta of order of the magnetic screening scale g^2 T is described by a Boltzmann equation. The dynamical content of this theory is explored. There are…
The one-loop polarization operator of neutral gluons in the background constant Abelian isotopic, $H_{3}$, and hypercharge, $H_{8}$, chromomagnetic fields combined with $A_0$ electrostatic potential at high temperature is calculated. The…
The dynamics of weakly coupled, non-abelian gauge fields at high temperature is non-perturbative if the characteristic momentum scale is of order |k|~ g^2 T. Such a situation is typical for the processes of electroweak baryon number…
We examine, through a Boltzmann equation approach, the generating action of hard thermal loops in the background of gravitational fields. Using the gauge and Weyl invariance of the theory at high temperature, we derive an explicit…
