Quantum fluctuations of the electroweak sphaleron: Erratum and Addendum

Abstract

We correct an error in our treatment of the tadpole contribution to the fluctuation determinant of the sphaleron, and also a minor mistake in a previous estimate. Thereby the overall agreement between the two existing exact computations and their consistency with the estimate is improved considerably.
