Power corrections and gradient expansion in QED transport theory
Stefano Carignano, Cristina Manuel
The hard thermal loop (HTL) effective field theory of QED can be derived from the classical limit of transport theory, corresponding to the leading term in a gradient expansion of…
Measuring chiral imbalance with collisional energy loss
Stefano Carignano, Cristina Manuel
We compute the collisional energy loss of an {energetic} massive fermion crossing a chiral plasma at finite temperature characterized by an imbalance between the populations of lef…
Pion crystals hosting topologically stable baryons
Fabrizio Canfora, Stefano Carignano, Marcela Lagos +2
We construct analytic (3+1)-dimensional inhomogeneous and topologically non-trivial pion systems using chiral perturbation theory. We discuss the effect of isospin asymmetry with v…
Heavy Quarkonium at finite temperature and chemical potential
Stefano Carignano, Joan Soto
We generalize known results for heavy quarkonium in a thermal bath to the case of a finite baryonic density, and provide a number of formulas for the energy shift and decay width t…
Inhomogeneous phases in the quark-meson model with explicit chiral-symmetry breaking
Michael Buballa, Stefano Carignano, Lennart Kurth
We investigate the existence of inhomogeneous chiral phases in the quark-meson model with explicit chiral-symmetry breaking. We find that the inhomogeneous region shrinks with incr…
Inhomogeneous chiral condensates in three-flavor quark matter
Stefano Carignano, Michael Buballa
We investigate the effect of strange quark degrees of freedom on the formation of inhomogeneous chiral condensates in a three-flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model in mean-field approxi…
