On the dependence of the Landau gauge ghost-gluon-vertex on the number of flavors

Fabian Zierler, Reinhard Alkofer

The gauge-boson, ghost and fermion propagators as well as the gauge-boson--ghost vertex function are studied for SU(N), Sp(2N) and SO(N) gauge groups. We solve a set of coupled Dys…

How to determine the branch points of correlation functions in Euclidean space II: Three-point functions

Markus Q. Huber, Wolfgang J. Kern, Reinhard Alkofer

The analytic structure of elementary correlation functions of a quantum field is relevant for the calculation of masses of bound states and their time-like properties in general. I…

The analytic structure of three-point functions from contour deformations

Markus Q. Huber, Wolfgang J. Kern, Reinhard Alkofer

We explore the analytic structure of three-point functions using contour deformations. This method allows continuing calculations analytically from the spacelike to the timelike re…

Identifying Time Scales in Particle Production from Fields

Matthias Diez, Reinhard Alkofer, Christian Kohlfürst

Particle production through ultra-strong electric fields is a well-studied research field. Nevertheless, despite repeated attempts to relate the production rate within the field to…

Elucidating the rho-meson's role as intermediate resonance in the time-like electromagnetic pion form factor

Reinhard Alkofer, Angel S. Miramontes, Helios Sanchis-Alepuz

Motivated by the planned measurements of the time-like electromagnetic proton form factors an exploratory study of the time-like electromagnetic pion form factor is presented in a…

Electromagnetic and strong isospin breaking in light meson masses

Ángel S. Miramontes, Reinhard Alkofer, Christian S. Fischer +1

We study electromagnetic as well as strong isospin breaking effects in the isospin mass splittings of light pseudoscalar and vector mesons. To this end we employ a coupled system o…
