Finite size effects and the order of a phase transition in fragmenting nuclear systems
J. M. Carmona, N. Michel, J. Richert +1
We discuss the implications of finite size effects on the determination of the order of a phase transition which may occur in infinite systems. We introduce a specific model to whi…
A new mechanism of mass protection for fermions
J. L. Alonso, Ph. Boucaud, J. M. Carmona +3
We present a way of protecting a Dirac fermion interacting with a scalar (Higgs) field from getting a mass from the vacuum. It is obtained through an implementation of translationa…
Wegner-Houghton equation in low dimensions
J. M. Carmona, J. Polonyi, A. Tarancon
We consider scalar field theories in dimensions lower than four in the context of the Wegner-Houghton renormalization group equations (WHRG). The renormalized trajectory makes a no…
