We study the electroweak phase transition by lattice simulations of an effective 3-dimensional theory, for a Higgs mass of about $70$ GeV. Exploiting a variant of the equal weight criterion of phase equilibrium, we obtain transition…
In this review, we present the key aspects of modern thermal perturbation theory based on the hard thermal loop (HTL) approximation, including its theoretical foundations and applications within quantum electrodynamics (QED) and quantum…
A wide spectrum of electrokinetic studies is modelled as isothermal ones to expedite analysis even when such conditions may be extremely difficult to realize in practice. As a clear and novel departure from this trend, we address the case…
Present knowledge of the function of materials is largely based on studies (experimental and theoretical) that are performed at low temperatures and ultra-low pressures. However, the majority of everyday applications, like e.g. catalysis,…
This PhD thesis is concerned with one-loop virtual electroweak corrections to arbitrary processes in the high-energy limit. Complete results are presented for the leading and subleading logarithms of large ratios of energy scales to mass…
I give a brief introduction to the goals, challenges, and technical difficulties of lattice QCD thermodynamics and present some recent results from the HotQCD collaboration for the crossover temperature, equation of state, and other…
Summary of electroweak Standard Model, including aspects of gauge summetry, symmetry breaking, and quantum radiative corrections. Implications of precise electroweak measurements for Standard Model and hypothetical non-Standard states and…
We review recent progress in studies of bulk thermodynamics of strongly interacting matter, present results on the QCD equation of state and discuss the status of studies of the phase diagram at non-vanishing quark chemical potential.
A possible solution to the observed baryon asymmetry in the universe is described, based on the physics of the standard model of electroweak interactions. At temperatures high enough electroweak physics provides violation of baryon number,…
This thesis explores two different avenues aimed at improving our ability to calculate reliably in the Standard Model of particle physics and probing possible new particles which may exist beyond it. In the first part, we explore whether…
We present a detailed analysis of the phase transition in the standard model at finite temperature. Using an improved perturbation theory, where plasma masses are determined from a set of one-loop gap equations, we evaluate the effective…
This talk summarises recent results on lattice Monte Carlo studies of finite T electroweak phase transition. Particular attention is given to the 3d effective theory approach, replacing the full 4d theory by a three dimensional effective…
We study in detail the thermodynamics of the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) matter utilizing two different statistics, extensive and non-extensive. The thermodynamics such as (pressure, number density, energy density , entropy and…
We study models of strong first order `low' temperature electroweak phase transition. To achieve this we propose a class of Higgs effective potential models which preserve the known features of the present day massive phase. However, the…
We compare two methods of analyzing the finite-temperature electroweak phase transition in the minimal supersymmetric standard model: the traditional effective potential (EP) approach, and the more recently advocated procedure of…
We study QCD at finite temperature in the presence of imaginary electric fields. In particular, we determine the electric susceptibility, the leading coefficient in the expansion of the QCD pressure in the imaginary field. Unlike for…
We investigate thermodynamical properties of quantum electrodynamics in 1+1 dimensions. Discrete light cone quantization is used to compute the partition function of the canonical ensemble and the thermodynamical potential. The potential is…
The computation of order $e^4$ and $e^5$ contributions to the pressure of massless quantum electrodynamics at a temperature $T$ is overviewed.
Starting from a nonperturbative expression for entropy and density obtained from $\Phi$-derivable two-loop approximations to the thermodynamic potential, a quasiparticle model for the thermodynamics of QCD can be developed which…
Electromagnetic and electroweak probes are the most versatile probes in the study of heavy-ion collisions. Produced at every stage in the evolution of QCD matter, its messengers are practically inert to the strongly interacting medium they…
