Anti-Screening by Quarks and the Structure of the Inter-Quark Potential
E. Bagan, M. Lavelle, D. McMullan
The inter-quark potential is dominated by anti-screening effects which underly asymptotic freedom. We calculate the order g^6 anti-screening contribution from light fermions and de…
Charged Particles: A Builder's Guide
Emili Bagan, Robin Horan, Martin Lavelle +2
It is sometimes claimed that one cannot describe charged particles in gauge theories. We identify the root of the problem and present an explicit construction of charged particles.…
Effective Quarks and Their Interactions
Emili Bagan, Robin Horan, Martin Lavelle +1
This talk will summarise the progress we have made in our programme to both characterise and construct charges in gauge theories. As an application of these ideas we will see how t…
Electrons and Photons: Fact not Fiction
Emili Bagan, Martin Lavelle, David McMullan
The particle Fock space of the matter fields in QED can be constructed using the free creation and annihilation operators. However, these particle operators are not, even at asympt…
Charged Matter: Physics and Renormalisation
Emili Bagan, Martin Lavelle, David McMullan
Descriptions of the ground state in unbroken gauge theories with charged particles are discussed. In particular it is shown that the on-shell Green's functions and S-matrix element…
The Structure of the QCD Potential in 2+1 Dimensions
E. Bagan, M. Lavelle, D. McMullan
We calculate the screening and anti-screening contributions to the inter-quark potential in 2+1 dimensions, which is relevant to the high temperature limit of QCD. We demonstrate t…
