Yang-Mills thermodynamics: The confining phase
Ralf Hofmann
We summarize recent nonperturbative results obtained for the thermodynamics of an SU(2) and an SU(3) Yang-Mills theory being in its confining (center) phase. This phase is associat…
A strongly interacting SU(2) pure gauge theory and the nature of light
Ralf Hofmann
We present quantitative and qualitative arguments in favor of the claim that, within the present cosmological epoch, the U(1) factor in the Standard Model is an effective manif…
Yang-Mills thermodynamics: The preconfining phase
Ralf Hofmann
We summarize recent nonperturbative results obtained for the thermodynamics of an SU(2) and an SU(3) Yang-Mills theory being in its preconfining (magnetic) phase. We focus on an ex…
SU(2) Yang-Mills thermodynamics: two-loop corrections to the pressure
U. Herbst, R. Hofmann, J. Rohrer
We compute the two-loop corrections to the thermodynamical pressure of an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory being in its electric phase. Our results prove that the one-loop evolution of the…
Nonperturbative and analytical approach to Yang-Mills thermodynamics
Ralf Hofmann
An analytical, macroscopic approach to SU(N) Yang-Mills thermodynamics is developed, tested,and applied.
Pointlike electrons and muons and the nature of neutrinos
Ralf Hofmann
We show that the form factor of an electron or a muon is unity for the modulus of the momentum transfer away from the Hagedorn temperatures and an…
