Bubble nucleation at zero and nonzero temperatures
نویسندگان
چکیده
The theory of false vacuum decay in a thermal system may have cross-over from predominantly transitions to quantum as the temperature is decreased. New numerical methods and results are presented here that can be used model bubble nucleation this regime for cosmology laboratory analogues early universe phase transitions.

Heavy-quark condensate at zero- and nonzero temperatures for various forms of the short-distance potential
With the use of the world-line formalism, the heavy-quark condensate in the SU(N)-QCD is evaluated for the cases when the next-to-1/r term in the quark-antiquark potential at short distances is either quadratic, or linear. In the former case, the standard QCD-sum-rules result is reproduced, while the latter result is a novel one. Explicitly, it is UV-finite only in less than four dimensions. Th...
متن کاملNonzero macroscopic magnetization in half-metallic antiferromagnets at finite temperatures
Combining density-functional theory calculations with many-body Green’s-function technique, we reveal that the macroscopic magnetization in half-metallic antiferromagnets does not vanish at finite temperature as for the T=0 limit. This anomalous behavior stems from the inequivalent magnetic sublattices which lead to different intrasublattice exchange interactions. As a consequence, the spin flu...
متن کاملDissipative dynamics of superfluid vortices at nonzero temperatures.
We consider the evolution and dissipation of vortex rings in a condensate at nonzero temperatures in the context of the classical field approximation, based on the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The temperature in such a system is fully determined by the total number density and the number density of the condensate. The collisions with noncondensed particles reduce the radius of a v...
متن کاملElectroweak Bubble Nucleation , Nonperturbatively
We present a lattice method to compute bubble nucleation rates at radiatively induced first order phase transitions, in high temperature, weakly coupled field theories, nonperturbatively. A generalization of Langer’s approach, it makes no recourse to saddle point expansions and includes completely the dynamical prefactor. We test the technique by applying it to the electroweak phase transition ...
متن کاملSurface bubble nucleation stability.
Recent research has revealed several different techniques for nanoscopic gas nucleation on submerged surfaces, with findings seemingly in contradiction with each other. In response to this, we have systematically investigated the occurrence of surface nanobubbles on a hydrophobized silicon substrate for various different liquid temperatures and gas concentrations, which we controlled independen...
