Thermal perturbation theory based on the resummation scheme by Braaten and Pisarski suffers from unscreened collinear singularities whenever outer momenta become light-like. A recently proposed improvement of the hard thermal loops by an…
The thermodynamical potential of relativistic gauge theories can be consistently resummed in terms of HTL propagators, which is, without being restricted to it, exemplified for the case of hot QED. The nonperturbative resummation is gauge…
The impact of non-extensive statistics on the hard thermal loop (HTL) resummation technique is investigated, in the absence and presence of a magnetic field. By utilizing the non-extensive bare propagators in the real-time formalism of…
A recent development in finite temperature field theory, the so-called Braaten-Pisarski method, and its application to properties of a quark-gluon plasma, possibly formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions, are reviewed. In particular…
Chiral symmetry is used as the guiding principle to derive hard thermal loop effects in chiral perturbation theory. This is done by using a chiral invariant background field method for the non-linear sigma model and the Wess-Zumino-Witten…
We study the realization of dimensional reduction and the validity of the hard thermal loop expansion for lambda phi^4 theory at finite temperature, using an environmentally friendly finite-temperature renormalization group with a fiducial…
We consider finite temperature 1-loop diagrams with hard loop momenta and an arbitrary number of external gauge fields when the external momenta are either soft, or near the light cone and nearly collinear with the loop momentum. We obtain…
We study, in the imaginary-time formalism, the high temperature behavior of n-point thermal loops in static Yang-Mills and gravitational fields. We show that in this regime, any hard thermal loop gives the same leading contribution as the…
The effective action for hard thermal loops in QCD is related to a gauged WZNW theory. Some of the technical issues of this approach are clarified and the Hamiltonian formulation is presented. The two-point correlation function for the…
In the framework of the Hard Thermal Loop effective theory, we calculate the two-loop contributions to hard lepton pair production in a quark-gluon plasma. We show that the result is free of any infrared and collinear singularity. We also…
We discuss resummation strategies for free energy in quantum field theories at nonzero temperatures T. We point out that resummations should be performed for the short- and long-distance parts separately in order to avoid spurious…
The static and dynamic chiral susceptibilities in the quark-gluon plasma are calculated within the lowest order perturbative QCD at finite temperature and the Hard Thermal Loop resummation technique using an effective quark propagator.…
Resummation, ie. reorganization of perturbative series, can result in an inconsistent perturbation theory, unless the counterterms are reorganized in an appropriate way. In this paper two methods are presented for resummation of…
We show that the resummation of large radiative corrections in QCD processes can be performed both in covariant gauge and in axial gauge. We extend the resummation technique to inclusive processes, concentrating on deeply inelastic…
We compute the pressure of a finite density quark-gluon plasma at zero temperature to leading order in hard-thermal-loop perturbation theory, which includes the fermionic excitations and Landau damping. The result is compared with the…
It is argued that for hot quantum fields, the necessary effective perturbation theories may be based on a resummation procedure which, contrarily to the zero temperature case, differs substantially from the one ordinarily in use. Important…
The damping rate of a hard photon in a hot relativistic QED and QCD plasma is calculated using the resummation technique by Braaten and Pisarski.
In the usual real-time finite-temperature gauge theory both the physical and the unphysical degrees of freedom are thermalised. We discuss the alternative approach where only the physical transverse components of the gauge field have bare…
This talk offers a brief review of the determination of coupling constants in the framework of dimensionally reduced effective field theories for thermal QCD, specializing on its gluonic sector. Interestingly, higher-order operators that go…
The perturbative series for finite-temperature field theories has very poor convergence properties and one needs a way to reorganize it. In this talk, I review two ways of reorganizing the perturbative series for field theories at finite…
