Simulating hot Abelian gauge dynamics
The time evolution of soft modes in a quantum gauge field theory is to first approximation classical, but the equations of motion are non-local. We show how they can be written in a local and Hamiltonian way in an Abelian theory, and that this formulation is particularly suitable for numerical simulations. This makes it possible to simulate numerically non-equilibrium processes such as the phas...
متن کاملNon-perturbative dynamics of hot non-Abelian gauge fields: beyond leading log approximation
Many aspects of high-temperature gauge theories, such as the electroweak baryon number violation rate, color conductivity, and the hard gluon damping rate, have previously been understood only at leading logarithmic order (that is, neglecting effects suppressed only by an inverse logarithm of the gauge coupling). We discuss how to systematically go beyond leading logarithmic order in the analys...

متن کاملPhase transition dynamics in the hot Abelian Higgs model
We present a detailed numerical study of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium dynamics of the phase transition in the finite-temperature Abelian Higgs model. Our simulations use classical equations of motion both with and without hard-thermal-loop corrections, which take into account the leading quantum effects. From the equilibrium real-time correlators, we determine the plasmon frequency, the p...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium Dynamics of Hot Abelian Higgs Model
Depending on its details, the electroweak phase transition may explain the observed baryon asymmetry in the Universe. Although static equilibrium properties such as the phase structure of the theory have been determined to high accuracy with numerical lattice simulations, much less is known about non-equilibrium dynamics, or even real-time correlators in equilibrium. The reason is that to calcu...
