The helicity modulus in gauge field theories
We consider the 4d compact U(1) theory with Wilson action and characterize its phase diagram using the notion of electromagnetic flux, instead of the more usual magnetic monopole. Taking inspiration from the flux picture, we consider the helicity modulus (h.m.) for this theory, and show that it is an order parameter for the confinement deconfinement phase transition. We extend the definition of...
متن کاملHelicity Formalism for Spin - 2 Particles ∗
We develop the helicity formalism for spin-2 particles and apply it to the case of gravity in flat extra dimensions. We then implement the large extra dimensions scenario of Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali in the program AMEGIC++, allowing for an easy calculation of arbitrary processes involving the emission or exchange of gravitons. We complete the set of Feynman rules derived by Han, Lykke...
متن کاملGeometrical formalism in gauge theories
We review the basic elements of the geometrical formalism for description of gauge fields and the theory of invariant connections, and their applications to the coset space dimensional reduction of Yang-Mills theories. We also discuss the problem of classification of principal fibre bundles, which is important for the quantization of gauge theories. Some results for bundles over two-dimensional...
متن کاملHelicity Density Matrix Formalism and Polarized Processes in QCD
In this thesis, we shall first present helicity density matrix formalism to deal with the polarized processes in quantum chromodynamics(QCD), in which the calculations of the desired cross sections (or asymmetries in many cases) are simplified to take traces of products of helicity density matrices in the underlying particles' (partons, hadrons, etc.) helicity spaces. The parton distribution an...
متن کاملGauge fixing and BRST formalism in non-Abelian gauge theories
In this Thesis we present a comprehensive study of perturbative and non-perturbative non-Abelian gauge theories in the light of gauge-fixing procedures, focusing our attention on the BRST formalism in Yang-Mills theory. We propose first a model to re-write the Faddeev-Popov quantisation method in terms of grouptheoretical techniques and then we give a possible way to solve the no-go theorem of ...
