We discuss a recent approach for overcoming the poor convergence of the perturbative expansion for the thermodynamic potential of QCD. This approach is based on self-consistent approximations which allow for a gauge-invariant and manifestly…
We study the effective parameters of QED near decoupling temperatures and show that the QED perturbative series is convergent, at temperatures below the decoupling temperature. The renormalization constant of QED acquires different values…
Previous experiments and numerical simulations have revealed that a limited number of two- and three-dimensional particle systems contract in volume upon heating isobarically. This anomalous phenomenon is known as negative thermal expansion…
Recent developments of perturbation theory at finite temperature based on effective field theory methods are reviewed. These methods allow the contributions from the different scales to be separated and the perturbative series to be…
The problem of computing the thermodynamic properties of a one-dimensional gas of particles which transform in the adjoint representation of the gauge group and interact through non-Abelian electric fields is formulated and solved in the…
I review recent lattice results on strongly interacting matter under extreme conditions, with emphasis on the finite-temperature QCD transition at $\mu_B=0$, its approach toward the chiral limit and the fate of the $U_A(1)$ anomaly, as well…
We present preliminary results achieved within a recently started project dealing with QCD thermodynamics in the presence of a fully dynamical second quark family. We are employing the Wilson twisted mass discretization. To reduce the…
Diboson production processes are of great importance in high-energy physics and a precise theoretical knowledge of VV production is mandatory not only in view of precision tests of the Standard Model but also in the one of new physics…
We investigate the impact of the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly on the nonequilibrium evolution of strong-field quantum electrodynamics (QED) using real-time lattice gauge theory techniques. For field strengths exceeding the Schwinger limit for…
We study the behavior of excitations in the tilted one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model. In the phase with broken symmetry, fundamental excitations are domain-walls which show fractional statistics. Using perturbation theory, we derive an…
We study the effects of weak long-ranged antiferromagnetic interactions of strength $Q$ on a spin model with predominant short-ranged ferromagnetic interactions. In three dimensions, this model exhibits an avoided critical point in the…
We consider interaction effects in quantum point contacts on the first quantization plateau, taking into account all non momentum-conserving processes. We compute low-temperature linear and non-linear conductance, shot noise, and…
Models of strongly interacting theories with a large mass anomalous dimension ($\gamma_m$) provide an interesting possibility for the dynamical origin of the electroweak symmetry breaking. A laboratory for these models is QCD with many…
During the first part of this review we will focus on the thermodynamics of $SU(N)$ gauge theories at finite temperature. We will present results from a calculation of electric and magnetic screening masses for the gluons, discuss…
This is an introduction to the use of nonperturbative flow equations in strong interaction physics at nonzero temperature and baryon density. We investigate the QCD phase diagram as a function of temperature, chemical potential for baryon…
We provide evidence that the gauge-fermion interaction in multiflavour quantum electrodynamics in $(2 + 1)$-dimensions is responsible for non-fermi liquid behaviour in the infrared, in the sense of leading to the existence of a non-trivial…
We investigate the finite temperature momentum distribution of bosonic noncondensate particles inside a 3D optical lattice near the superfluid to Mott insulator transition point, treating the quantum fluctuation and thermal fluctuation…
In this paper, we report the measurements of specific heat of an amorphous $Ti_{9.5}Si_{90.5}$ alloy located very close to the critical point of the metal-insulator transition. In the presence of a magnetic field, the specific heat is…
In this paper we analyze how radiation effects influence the correlation functions, the excess energy, and in turn the electron correlation energy of the quantized electron gas at temperature $T=0$. To that aim we resort to a statistical…
Negative specific heat is a dramatic phenomenon where processes decrease in temperature when adding energy. It has been observed in gravo-thermal collapse of globular clusters. We now report finding this phenomenon in bundles of nearly…
