Four-Point Spectral Functions and Ward Identities in Hot QED

Hou Defu, M. E. Carrington, R. Kobes +1

We derive spectral representations for the different components of the 4-point function at finite temperature in the real time formalism in terms of five real spectral densities. W…

Nonperturbative calculation of the shear viscosity in hot phi**4 theory in real time

Enke Wang, Ulrich Heinz

Starting from the Kubo formula we calculate the shear viscosity in hot phi**4 theory nonperturbatively by resumming ladders with a real-time version of the Bethe-Salpeter equation…

Shear viscosity in theory from an extended ladder resummation

M. E. Carrington, Hou Defu, R. Kobes

We study shear viscosity in weakly coupled hot theory using the CTP formalism . We show that the viscosity can be obtained as the integral of a three-point function. Non-pert…

Identification of Colour Reconnection using Factorial Correlator

Fu Jinghua, Liu Lianshou

A new signal is proposed for the colour reconnection in the hadronic decay of W+ W- in e+e- collisions. Using Pythia Monte Carlo it is shown that this signal, being based on the fa…

Non-Abelian Collective Excitations in Unlinearized Quark-Gluon Plasma Media

Zheng Xiaoping, Hou Defu, Li Jiarong

We study the effect of unlinearized medium on the collective excitations in quark-gluon plasma. We present two kinds of non-Abelian oscillation solutions which respectively corresp…

An effective relaxation-time approach to collisionless quark-gluon plasma

Zheng Xiaoping, Li Jiarong, Liu Lianggang +1

We present an effective relaxation-time theory to study the collisionless quark-gluon plasma. Applying this method we calculate the damping rate to be of order and find plas…

Nonmonotonic External Field Dependence of the Magnetization in a Finite Ising Model: Theory and MC Simulation

X. S. Chen, V. Dohm, D. Stauffer

Using field theory and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation we investigate the finite-size effects of the magnetization for the three-dimensional Ising model in a finite cubic geo…

The Nonlinear Permittivity Including Non-Abelian Self-interaction of Plasmons in Quark-Gluon Plasma

Chen Jisheng, Zheng Xiaoping, Li Jiarong

By decomposing the distribution functions and color field to regular and fluctuation parts, the solution of the semi-classical kinetic equations of quark-gluon plasma is analyzed.…

Enhancement of singly and multiply strangeness in p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at 158A GeV/c

Sa Ben-Hao, Wang Xiao-Rong, Tai An +2

The idea that the reduction of the strange quark suppression in string fragmentation leads to the enhancement of strange particle yield in nucleus-nucleus collisions is applied to…

Exact Solutions to Sourceless Charged Massive Scalar Field Equation on Kerr-Newman Background

S. Q. Wu, X. Cai

The separated radial part of a sourceless massive complex scalar field equation on the Kerr-Newman black hole background is shown to be a generalized spin-weighted spheroidal wave…

The Influence of Statistical Fluctuations on Erraticity Behavior of Multiparticle System

Fu Jinghua, Wu Yuanfang, Liu Lianshou

It is demonstrated that in low multiplicity sample, the increase of the fluctuation of event-factorial-moments with the diminishing of phase space scale, called ``erraticity'', are…
