Thermal photon production rate from non-equilibrium quantum field theory
In the framework of closed time path thermal field theory we investigate the production rate of hard thermal photons from a QCD plasma away from equilibrium. Dynamical screening provides a finite rate for chemically non-equilibrated distributions of quarks and gluons just as it does in the equilibrium situation. Pinch singularities are shown to be absent in the real photon rate even away from e...
متن کاملString production at the level of effective field theory
Pair creation of strings in time-dependent backgrounds is studied from an effective field theory viewpoint, and some possible cosmological applications are discussed. Simple estimates suggest that excited strings may have played a significant role in preheating, if the string tension as measured in four-dimensional Einstein frame falls a couple of orders of magnitude below the four-dimensional ...
متن کاملEffective Field Theory
Attempts to apply effective field theory (EFT) methods to nonrelativistic nucleon-nucleon (N N) scattering have raised questions about the nature and limitations of an EFT expansion when used nonperturbatively. We discuss the characteristics of a meaningful EFT analysis and compare them with traditional approaches to N N scattering. A key feature of an EFT treatment is a systematic expansion in...
متن کاملImproving jet distributions with effective field theory.
We obtain perturbative expressions for jet distributions using soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). By matching SCET onto QCD at high energy, tree level matrix elements and higher order virtual corrections can be reproduced in SCET. The resulting operators are then evolved to lower scales, with additional operators being populated by required threshold matchings in the effective theory. We s...
