Slowing Out of Equilibrium Near the QCD Critical Point
The QCD phase diagram may feature a critical end point at a temperature T and baryon chemical potential μ which is accessible in heavy ion collisions. The universal long wavelength fluctuations which develop near this Ising critical point result in experimental signatures which can be used to find the critical point. The magnitude of the observed effects depends on how large the correlation len...
متن کاملFinite Temperature QCD Interfaces Out of Equilibrium
The properties of interfaces in non-equilibrium situations are studied by constructing a density matrix with a space-dependent temperature. The temperature gradient gives rise to new terms in the equation for the order parameter. Surface terms induced in effective actions by abrupt temperature changes provide a natural theoretical framework for understanding the occurence of both continuous and...
متن کاملOut of Equilibrium
This review article takes the volume by Mario Amendola and Jean-Luc Gaffard Out of Equilibrium as the starting point of a general assessment of the scope and perspectives of out-of-equilibrium economics. After describing the particular subject-matter covered by Amendola and Gaffard, the author calls attention upon he fundamental role in their treatment of time, coordination, and the magnitude o...
متن کاملOut of Equilibrium Dynamics of an Inflationary Phase Transition
We study the non-linear dynamics of an inflationary phase transition in a quartically self coupled inflaton model within the framework of a de Sitter background. Large N and Hartree non-perturbative approximations combined with non-equilibrium field theory methods are used to study the selfconsistent time evolution including backreaction effects. We find that when the system cools down from an ...
متن کاملSix out of equilibrium lectures
1 Preface The purpose of these notes is to introduce a group of subjects in out of equilibrium statistical mechanics that have received considerable attention in the last fifteen years or so. They are mostly connected with time-reversibility and its relation to entropy, are expressed in terms of large deviations, and involve at some level the notion of timescale-separation. We shall consider sy...
