Snowmass Theory Frontier: Effective Field Theory
Matthew Baumgart, Fady Bishara, Tomas Brauner +34
We summarize recent progress in the development, application, and understanding of effective field theories and highlight promising directions for future research. This Report is p…
Towards an effective action for relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics
Pavel Kovtun, Guy D. Moore, Paul Romatschke
We propose an effective action for first order relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics that can be used to evaluate n-point symmetrized correlation functions, taking into account th…
The stickiness of sound: An absolute lower limit on viscosity and the breakdown of second order relativistic hydrodynamics
Pavel Kovtun, Guy D. Moore, Paul Romatschke
Hydrodynamics predicts long-lived sound and shear waves. Thermal fluctuations in these waves can lead to the diffusion of momentum density, contributing to the shear viscosity and…
A schematic model of neutrinos
Pavel Kovtun, A. Zee
We show that the observed pattern for neutrino mixing arises naturally if neutrinos are composites of more elementary constituents carrying an SU(2) quantum number we call lepospin…
