Chiral symmetry restoration effects onto the meson spectrum from a Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter approach

Reinhard Alkofer, Christian S. Fischer, Fabian Zierler

Light meson spectra are studied in a Dyson-Schwinger/Bethe-Salpeter approach to QCD. By varying the interaction strength of three sets of models for the quark-antiquark interaction…

Analytic structure of the Landau gauge gluon propagator

Stefan Strauss, Christian S. Fischer, Christian Kellermann

The analytic structure of the non-perturbative gluon propagator contains information on the absence of gluons from the physical spectrum of the theory. We study this structure from…

Particle self-bunching in the Schwinger effect in spacetime-dependent electric fields

Florian Hebenstreit, Reinhard Alkofer, Holger Gies

Non-perturbative electron-positron pair creation (Schwinger effect) is studied based on the equal-time Wigner formalism in 1+1 dimensions. An ab initio calculation of the Schwinger…

What the Infrared Behaviour of QCD Vertex Functions in Landau gauge can tell us about Confinement

R. Alkofer, C. S. Fischer, F. Llanes-Estrada +1

The infrared behaviour of Landau gauge QCD vertex functions is investigated employing a skeleton expansion of the Dyson-Schwinger and Renormalization Group equations. Results for t…

The Infrared Behaviour of the Running Coupling in Landau Gauge QCD

R. Alkofer, C. S. Fischer, L. von Smekal

Approximate solutions for the gluon and ghost propagators as well as the running coupling in Landau gauge Yang-Mills theories are presented. These propagators obtained from the cor…
