Two-loop HTL pressure at finite temperature and chemical potential

Najmul Haque, Munshi G. Mustafa, Michael Strickland

We calculate the two-loop pressure of a plasma of quarks and gluons at finite temperature and chemical potential using the hard thermal loop perturbation theory (HTLpt) reorganizat…

Vacuum Polarization and Dynamical Chiral Symmetry Breaking: Phase Diagram of QED with Four-Fermion Contact Interaction

F. Akram, A. Bashir, L. X. Gutierrez-Guerrero +4

We study chiral symmetry breaking for fundamental charged fermions coupled electromagnetically to photons with the inclusion of four-fermion contact self-interaction term. We emplo…

Multichannel parametrization of πN scattering amplitudes and extraction of resonance parameters

M. Shrestha, D. M. Manley

We present results of a new multichannel partial-wave analysis for πN scattering in the c.m. energy range 1080 to 2100 MeV. This work explicitly includes ηN and K Λchannels and the…

Quark flavour effects on gluon and ghost propagators

A. Ayala, A. Bashir, D. Binosi +2

We compute the full non-perturbative ghost and gluon two-point Green functions by using gauge field configurations with $\nf=2$ and $\nf=2+1+1$ twisted-mass quark flavours. We use…

Partial-wave analysis of π-p {\to} ηn and π-p {\to} K0Λ reactions

M. Shrestha, D. M. Manley

We investigate the hadronic reactions πN {\to} ηN and πN {\to} KΛ via single-energy partial-wave analyses in the c.m. energy range 1080 to 2100 MeV. Our results for the KΛ channel…
