Chiral symmetry breaking in strongly coupled scalar QED 1
نویسندگان
چکیده
Scalar QED with fermions is investigated in an expansion in powers of the inverse gauge coupling constant. The fermion mass generation is studied in next to leading order of the strong coupling expansion for the Higgs-phase of the model. Chiral symmetry breaking is discussed. Our approach supports from a strong coupling point of view the results obtained earlier by Miransky, Bardeen and Kondo. 1 Supported by DFG under contracts La–932/1 − 1/2.

Chiral Symmetry Breaking in Strongly Coupled Qed?
The coupled system of renormalized Dyson-Schwinger equations for the electron self-energy and the photon propagator are supplied with the tree level vertex as Ansatz for the renormalized three point function. The system is investigated numerically. In the case of a massive electron, the theory is " weakly renormalizable " , i.e. cutoff independent for values of the cutoff below an upper limit. ...
متن کاملNon - Compact QED 3 with N f ≥ 2
Non-compact three-dimensional QED is studied by computer simulations to understand its chiral symmetry breaking features for N f ≥ 2, on lattice volumes up to 50 3 and bare masses as low as m 0 a = 0.0000625. We compute the chiral condensate, scalar and pseudoscalar susceptibilities, and the masses of scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. Finite volume effects and discretisation artifacts are careful...

A fine tuned hierarchy between a strongly coupled high energy compos-iteness scale and a much lower chiral symmetry breaking scale is a requisite ingredient in many models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. Using a nonperturbative continuous Wilson renormalization group equation approach, we explore the stability of such a hierarchy against quantum fluctuations. Many of the currently s...
متن کاملOn the Interplay of Monopoles and Chiral Symmetry Breaking in Non-Compact Lattice QED
Non-compact lattice QED is simulated for various numbers of fermion species Nf ranging from 8 through 40 by the exact Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. Over this range of Nf , chiral symmetry breaking is found to be strongly correlated with the effective monopoles in the theory. For Nf between 8 and 16 the chiral symmetry breaking and monopole percolation transitions are second order and coincident...
متن کاملU A ( 1 ) Symmetry Breaking and the Scalar Sector of QCD
It is shown that most of the unusual properties of the lowest lying scalar (and pseudoscalar) mesons can be understood, at the qualitative and quantitative level, on the basis of the breakdown of the UA(1) symmetry coupled to the vacuum expectation values of scalars by the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry.
