نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of a symmetry restoring phase transition in a scalar field theory, the " system " , linearly coupled to another scalar field taken as a " heat bath ". The " system " is initially in an ordered low temperature phase, and the heat bath is at a temperature close to the critical temperature for the system. We estimate the time at which the phase transition to the disordered (symmetric) phase takes place. We derive, and integrate the one-loop effective equations of motion for the order parameter that include the effects of the heat bath. A semiclassical Langevin equation is derived and it is found that it contains a non-dissipative, non-Markovian kernel, the noise term is colored and correlated on time scales determined by the temperature of the heat bath. The range of validity of the Langevin equation and a consistent procedure to incorporate corrections are discussed.

Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B ± → πK along with the CP-averaged B ± → π ± π 0 branching ratio can be used to bound and extract the weak phase γ = arg(V * ub). Using preliminary CLEO data, we obtain the bounds |γ| > 93 • at 1σ, and |γ| > 71 • at 90% CL.

We construct a gauge theory based on general nonlinear Lie algebras. The generic form of ‘dilaton’ gravity is derived from nonlinear Poincaré algebra, which exhibits a gauge-theoretical origin of the non-geometric scalar field in two-dimensional gravitation theory.
