Dynamical resummation and damping in the O(N) model
نویسنده
چکیده
A general real-time formalism is developed to resum the self-energy operator of broken symmetry scalar field theories in form of self-consistent gap equations for the spectral function. The solution of the equations is approximated with finite lifetime quasi-particles. In the Landau damping rates viscosity terms, analogous to gauge theories, appear, what leads to a finite damping rate for the long wavelength Goldstone modes.

Pitt-98-??; Lpthe-98/54 Dynamical Renormalization Group Resummation of Finite Temperature Infrared Divergences
We introduce the method of dynamical renormalization group to study relaxation and damping out of equilibrium directly in real time and applied it to the study of infrared divergences in scalar QED. This method allows a consistent resummation of infrared effects associated with the exchange of quasistatic transverse photons and leads to anomalous logarithmic relaxation of the form e−α T t ln[t/...

متن کاملDynamical Renormalization Group Approach to Quantum Kinetics in Scalar and Gauge Theories
We derive quantum kinetic equations from a quantum field theory implementing a diagrammatic perturbative expansion improved by a resummation via the dynamical renormalization group. The method begins by obtaining the equation of motion of the distribution function in perturbation theory. The solution of this equation of motion reveals secular terms that grow in time, the dynamical renormalizati...

We study the kinetics of the distribution function for charged particles of hard momentum in scalar QED. The goal is to understand the effects of infrared divergences associated with the exchange of quasistatic magnetic photons in the relaxation of the distribution function. We begin by obtaining a kinetic transport equation for the distribution function for hard charged scalars in a perturbati...
متن کاملEffects of Valve Closing Law and Unsteady Friction Model on Damping Pressure Waves in a Network
Water-hammer is a transient condition which may occur in a network as a result of rapid or slow valve closures, pump failures, changes in turbine loading, etc. It creates high and low pressure waves which travel along the system and decay as a result of wall shear stress. Comparison o experimental and theoretical results revealed the failure of steady or quasi-steady models in correctly predict...
