Chiral perturbation theory is the low energy effective theory of the strong interactions for the light pseudoscalar degrees of freedom. This program is based on effective Lagrangian techniques and is an expansion in the powers of the…
The thermo-magnetic corrections to the quark-gluon vertex in the presence of a weak magnetic field are calculated in the frame of the Hard Thermal Loop approximation. The vertex satisfies a QED-like Ward identity with the quark self-energy…
We present a brief review of recent attempts to construct effective theories to describe the breaking of the electroweak symmetry in extensions of the Standard Model with new strongly interacting dynamics around the TeV scale. Particular…
We use one-loop Heavy Meson Chiral Perturbation Theory (HMCHPT) as well as a relativistic formulation to calculate the chiral logarithms $m^2_\pi\log{\left(m^2_\pi/\mu^2\right)}$ contributing to the formfactors of the semileptonic…
The study of gauge bosons is interesting in two respects. The properties of gauge bosons are modified by higher order effects that are sensitive to mass scales not directly accessible to experiment. On the other hand interactions amongst…
The measurement of the spin angular momentum of circularly polarized light by Beth [Phys. Rev. 50, 115 (1936)] can be explained by using a microscopic torque density. However, the experiment does not resolve the space- and time-dependent…
To construct the high-temperature effective field theory of gauge-Higgs models up to $\mathcal{O}(g^6)$ in the gauge coupling, we integrate out hard modes to three-loop level and use the next-to-next-to-leading order effective potential.…
Phase transitions induced by high temperatures and strong magnetic fields are investigated in the Standard model. The consistent effective potential including the one-loop and ring diagram contributions is calculated and investigated for…
A simple and consistent real time analysis of the long-wavelength chiral condensate fields in the background of hard thermal modes is presented in the framework of the linear sigma model. Effective evolution equations are derived for the…
The real- and imaginary-time-formalisms of thermal field theory and their extension to gauge theories is reviewed. Questions of gauge (in-)dependence are discussed in detail, in particular the possible gauge dependences of the singularities…
Effective field theory techniques are used to describe the interaction of heavy hadrons in a model independent way. Predictability is obtained by exploiting the symmetries of QCD. Heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory is reviewed and used…
In these proceedings we explore the use of (non-linear) electroweak chiral Lagrangians for the description of possible beyond the Standard Model strong dynamics in the electroweak sector. Experimentally one observes an approximate…
Non-perturbative effects in the high-temperature phase of the electroweak theory are characterized by a magnetic screening length. Its size influences the range of validity of perturbation theory, and it also determines the critical Higgs…
Several different effects in electroweak quantum corrections are explored separately through the latest data on the weak-boson masses. The leading-log approximation, the improved-Born approximation and the non-decoupling top-quark effects…
We show that effective field theory techniques can be efficiently used to compute power corrections to the hard thermal loops (HTL) in a high temperature T expansion. To this aim, we use the recently proposed on-shell effective field theory…
By including the recently introduced thermal shear term that contributes to the spin polarization vector at local equilibrium, we determine longitudinal polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons emitted from a hot and rotating hadronic medium…
We examine the thermalization of an ensemble of the octet of pseudoscalar mesons, in the isospin symmetric limit, whose interactions are constrained through chiral symmetry, unitarity, and measurements. The reaction amplitudes generate all…
The weak-coupling expansion for thermodynamic quantities in thermal field theories is poorly convergent unless the coupling constant is tiny. We discuss the calculation of the free energy for a hot gas of electrons and photons to three-loop…
We derive the hard thermal loop action for soft electromagnetic fields in the finite temperature world-line formulation at imaginary time, by first integrating out the hard fermion modes from the microscopic QED action. Further, using the…
Abst\-ract: A hierarchy of effective three-dimensional theories of finite temperature electroweak matter is studied. First an integration over non-static modes leads to an effective theory containing a gauge field $A_{i}^{a}$, an adjoint…
