Dynamics of Homogeneous Scalar Fields with General Self-interaction Potentials: Cosmological and Gravitational Collapse Models
The general relativistic dynamics of a wide class of self-interacting, self-gravitating homogeneous scalar fields models is analyzed. The class is characterized by certain general conditions on the scalar field potential, which include both asymptotically polynomial and exponential behaviors. Within this class, we show that the generic evolution is always divergent in a finite time, and then ma...
متن کاملFlavour Stability of the Chiral Vacuum and Scalar Meson Dynamics
Previous work relating the flavour variation of the chiral order parameters Fπ, 〈ūu〉 and S-wave scattering data, based on chiral sum rules and chiral perturbation theory at order p, is extended to include O(p) corrections. The finding of a significant decrease of these order parameters, particularly 〈ūu〉, with the number of flavours increasing from NF = 2 to NF = 3 is confirmed, modulo an assum...
متن کاملGeneral Solutions for Tunneling of Scalar Fields with Quartic Potentials
For the theory of a single scalar field φ with a quartic potential V (φ), we find semianalytic expressions for the Euclidean action in both four and three dimensions. The action in four dimensions determines the quantum tunneling rate at zero temperature from a false vacuum state to the true vacuum state; similarly, the action in three dimensions determines the thermal tunneling rate for a fini...
متن کاملComparison of Boltzmann Equations with Quantum Dynamics for Scalar Fields
Boltzmann equations are often used to study the thermal evolution of particle reaction networks. Prominent examples are the computation of the baryon asymmetry of the universe and the evolution of the quark-gluon plasma after relativistic heavy ion collisions. However, Boltzmann equations are only a classical approximation of the quantum thermalization process which is described by the so-calle...
متن کامل0 Mixing of scalar glueballs and flavour - singlet scalar mesons
We discuss in detail the extraction of hadronic mixing strengths from lattice studies. We apply this to the mixing of a scalar glueball and a scalar meson in the quenched approximation. We also measure correlations appropriate for flavour-singlet scalar mesons using dynamical quark configurations from UKQCD. This enables us to compare the results from the quenched study of the mixing with the d...
