0 QED in the Worldline Formalism
A survey is given of applications of the “string-inspired” worldline formalism to the computation of amplitudes and effective actions in QED. INTRODUCTION: QED IN FIRST QUANTIZATION The “worldline” or “string-inspired” formalism is an alternative to the usual second-quantized formalism in quantum field theory based on relativistic particle path integrals. Although it was invented by Feynman [1,...
متن کاملHamiltonian formalism for the Oppenheimer-Snyder model
An effective action in Hamiltonian form is derived for a self-gravitating sphere of isotropic homogeneous dust. Starting from the Einstein-Hilbert action for barotropic perfect fluids and making use of the symmetry and equation of state of the matter distribution we obtain a family of reduced actions for two canonical variables, namely the radius of the sphere and its ADM energy, the latter bei...
متن کاملYukawa Couplings for the Spinning Particle and the Worldline Formalism
We construct the world-line action for a Dirac particle coupled to a classical scalar or pseudo-scalar background field. This action can be used to compute loop diagrams and the effective action in the Yukawa model using the world-line path-integral formalism for spinning particles. e-mail address [email protected] e-mail address [email protected] e-mail ad...
متن کاملPinched Gluon Vertex Operator in Super Worldline Formalism
We reformulate, using super worldline formalism, the pinched gluon vertex operator proposed by Strassler. The pinched vertex operator turns out to be the product of two gluon vertex operators with the insertion of δ-function which makes the super distances between them zero. Thus the pinch procedures turn out to be nothing but the insertions of δ-function. Applying our formulation to two-loop d...
متن کاملLoops and Loop Clouds – a Numerical Approach to the Worldline Formalism in Qed – *
A numerical technique for calculating effective actions of electromagnetic backgrounds is proposed, which is based on the string-inspired worldline formalism. As examples, we consider scalar electrodynamics in three and four dimensions to one-loop order. Beyond the constant-magnetic-field case, we analyze a step-function-like magnetic field exhibiting a nonlocal and nonperturbative phenomenon: ...
