Sphaleron rate at high temperature in 1+1 dimensions
W. H. Tang, J. Smit
We resolve the controversy in the high temperature behavior of the sphaleron rate in the abelian Higgs model in 1+1 dimensions. The behavior at intermediate lattice spacings…
High Temperature Behavior of the Chern-Simons Diffusion Rate in the 1+1 D Abelian Higgs Model
W. H. Tang, J. Smit
We give arguments that in the 1+1 dimensional abelian Higgs model the classical approximation can be good for the leading high temperature behavior of real time processes. The Cher…
Numerical study of plasmon properties in the SU(2)-Higgs model
W. H. Tang, J. Smit
Using the (effective) classical approximation, we compute numerically time-dependent correlation functions in the SU(2)-Higgs model around the electroweak phase transition, for $m_…
Chern-Simons Diffusion Rate near the Electroweak Phase Transition for
Jan Smit, Wai Hung Tang
The rate of -violation in the standard model at finite temperature is closely related to the diffusion rate of Chern-Simons number. We compute this rate for $m_H \approx m_W…
Sphaleron transition rate at high temperature in the 1+1 D abelian Higgs model
Jan Smit, Wai Hung Tang
New results for the rate are presented using the canonical ensemble in the classical approximation on a spatial lattice. We find that the rate at high temperatures is proportional…
