Nontopological Finite Temperature Induced Fermion Number
I. J. R. Aitchison, G. V. Dunne
We show that while the zero temperature induced fermion number in a chiral sigma model background depends only on the asymptotic values of the chiral field, at finite temperature t…
On the chiral and deconfinement phase transitions in parity-conserving QED_3 at finite temperature
I. J. R. Aitchison, C. D. Fosco
We present some results about the interplay between the chiral and deconfinement phase transitions in parity-conserving QED3 (with N flavours of massless 4 component fermions) at f…
Gauge Invariance and Effective Actions in D=3 at Finite Temperature
I. J. R. Aitchison, C. D. Fosco
For background gauge field configurations reducible to the form Amu = (A3, A(x)) where A3 is a constant, we provide an elementary derivation of the recently obtained result for the…
Effective Theory for Parity Conserving
I. J. R. Aitchison, C. D. Fosco, F. D. Mazzitelli
We consider a higher derivative effective theory for an Abelian gauge field in three dimensions, which represents the result of integrating out heavy matter fields interacting with…
Effective Lagrangians for BCS Superconductors at T=0
I. R. Aitchison, P. Ao, D. J. Thouless +1
We show that the low frequency, long wavelength dynamics of the phase of the pair field for a BCS-type s-wave superconductor at T=0 is equivalent to that of a time-dependent non-li…
