Real-time nonequilibrium dynamics in hot QED plasmas: dynamical renormalization group approach
S. -Y. Wang, D. Boyanovsky, H. J. de Vega +1
We study the real-time nonequilibrium dynamics in hot QED plasmas implementing a dynamical renormalization group and using the hard thermal loop (HTL) approximation. The focus is o…

Damping Rates and Mean Free Paths of Soft Fermion Collective Excitations in a Hot Fermion-Gauge-Scalar Theory
S. -Y. Wang, D. Boyanovsky, H. J. de Vega +2
We study the transport coefficients, damping rates and mean free paths of soft fermion collective excitations in a hot fermion-gauge-scalar plasma with the goal of understanding th…

Quantum Statistical Metastability Revisited
D. Boyanovsky, R. Holman, D. -S. Lee +2
We calculate the decay rate for a state prepared in a thermal density matrix centered on a metastable ground state. We find a rate that is intrinsically time {\it dependent}, as op…
