چکیده
The presence of magnetic monopole like excitations of nonabelian varieties is one of the subtlest consequences of spontaneously broken gauge symmetries. Important hints about their quantum mechanical properties, which remained long mysterious, are coming from a detailed knowledge of the dynamics of supersymmetric gauge theories which has become available recently. These developments might shed light on the problem of confinement and dynamical symmetry breaking in QCD. We discuss here some beautiful features of vortex-monopole systems, in which dual nonabelian transformations among monopoles are generated by the nonabelian vortex moduli.

In the present paper, we shall study the 4-dimensional Z2 lattice gauge model with a random gauge coupling; the random-plaquette gauge model(RPGM). The random gauge coupling at each plaquette takes the value J with the probability 1−p and −J with p. This model exhibits a confinement-Higgs phase transition. We numerically obtain a phase boundary curve in the (p − T )-plane where T is the “temper...

We point out that the permanent confinement in a compact 2+1-dimensional U(1) Abelian Higgs model is destroyed by matter fields in the fundamental representation. The deconfinement transition is Kosterlitz-Thouless like. The dual theory is shown to describe a three-dimensional gas of point charges with logarithmic interactions which arises from an anomalous dimension of the gauge field caused b...

Im Rahmen dieser Doktorarbeit wurde ein Modell für die elektroschwache Wechsel-wirkung entwickelt. Das Modell basiert auf der Tatsache, daß die sog. " Confinement "-Phase und Higgs-Phase der Theorie mit einem Higgs-Boson in der fundamentalen Darstel-lung der Eichgruppe SU(2) identisch sind. In der Higgs-Phase wird die Eichsymmetrie durch den Higgsmechanismus gebrochen. Dies führt zu Massenterme...

This brief review summarizes the main experimental discoveries made at RHIC and then discusses their implications. The robust collective flow phenomena are well described by ideal hydrodynamics, with the Equation of State (EoS) predicted by lattice simulations. However the transport properties turned out to be unexpected, with rescattering cross section one-to-two orders of magnitude larger tha...
