Can dissipation prevent explosive decomposition in high-energy heavy ion collisions?
Eduardo S. Fraga, G. Krein
We discuss the role of dissipation in the explosive spinodal decomposition scenario of hadron production during the chiral transition after a high-energy heavy ion collision. We us…
The role of quark mass in cold and dense perturbative QCD
Eduardo S. Fraga, Paul Romatschke
We consider the equation of state of QCD at high density and zero temperature in perturbation theory to first order in the coupling constant . We compute the thermodynamic pot…
Phase Conversion After a Chiral Transition: Effects from Inhomogeneities and Finite Size
Eduardo S. Fraga
We discuss the kinetics of phase conversion, through the nucleation of bubbles and spinodal decomposition, after a chiral transition within an effective field theory approach to lo…
Transient photon production in a QGP
Eduardo S. Fraga, Francois Gelis, Dominique Schiff
We discuss the shortcomings of a formula that has been used in the literature to compute the number of photons emitted by a hot or dense system during a finite time, and show that…
Correlations around an interface
A. Bessa, C. A. A. de Carvalho, E. S. Fraga
We compute one-loop correlation functions for the fluctuations of an interface using a field theory model. We obtain them from Feynman diagrams drawn with a propagator which is the…
