Leading low-temperature correction to the Heisenberg-Euler Lagrangian

Felix Karbstein

In this note, we show that the well-known leading low-temperature correction to the Heisenberg-Euler Lagrangian in a constant electromagnetic field arising at two loops can be effi…

Mean-field theory for self-interacting relativistic Luttinger fermions

Holger Gies, Marta Picciau

We investigate a class of quantum field theories with relativistic Luttinger fermions and local self-interaction in scalar channels. For an understanding of possible low-energy pha…

Particle production and hadronization temperature in the massive Schwinger model

Laura Batini, Lara Kuhn, Jürgen Berges +1

We study the pair production, string breaking, and hadronization of a receding electron-positron pair using the bosonized version of the massive Schwinger model in quantum electrod…

Renormalization Flow of Nonlinear Electrodynamics

Holger Gies, Julian Schirrmeister

We study the renormalization flow of generic actions that depend on the invariants of the field strength tensor of an abelian gauge field. While the Maxwell action defines a Gaussi…

Towards the full Heisenberg-Euler effective action at large

Felix Karbstein

We study the Heisenberg-Euler effective action in constant electromagnetic fields for QED with charged particle flavors of the same mass and charge in the large $…

Quantum field theories of relativistic Luttinger fermions

Holger Gies, Philip Heinzel, Johannes Laufkötter +1

We propose relativistic Luttinger fermions as a new ingredient for the construction of fundamental quantum field theories. We construct the corresponding Clifford algebra and the s…
