Instantons and the Chiral Phase Transition
Thomas Appelquist, Stephen B. Selipsky
We examine the role of instantons in the zero-temperature chiral phase transition in an SU(N) gauge theory. For a range of N_f (the number of fermion flavors) depending on N, the t…
Phenomenology of the Top Mass in Realistic Extended Technicolor Models
Thomas Appelquist, Nick Evans, Stephen B. Selipsky
Extended technicolor (ETC) theories typically require ETC gauge bosons lighter than of order 1 TeV, to perturbatively generate the quark mass. We point out that explicit models…
A strongly first order electroweak phase transition from strong symmetry-breaking interactions
Thomas Appelquist, Myckola Schwetz, Stephen B. Selipsky
We argue that a strongly first order electroweak phase transition is natural in the presence of strong symmetry-breaking interactions, such as technicolor. We demonstrate this usin…
Static Properties of Quark Solitons
Gonen Gomelski, Marek Karliner, Stephen B. Selipsky
It has been conjectured that at distances smaller than the confinement scale but large enough to allow for nonperturbative effects, QCD is described by an effective $SU(N_c {\times…
Extended Technicolor Corrections to the Vertex
E. H. Simmons, R. S. Chivukula, S. B. Selipsky
Extended technicolor theories generate potentially large corrections to the $\Zbb$ vertex. These can be observed in current experiments at LEP.
