Numerical Investigation of Monopole Chains

Gerald V. Dunne, Vishesh Khemani

We present numerical results for chains of SU(2) BPS monopoles constructed from Nahm data. The long chain limit reveals an asymmetric behavior transverse to the periodic direction,…

An Oscillon in the SU(2) Gauged Higgs Model

E. Farhi, N. Graham, V. Khemani +2

We study classical dynamics in the spherical ansatz for the SU(2) gauge and Higgs fields of the electroweak Standard Model in the absence of fermions and the photon. With the Higgs…

2+1 Dimensional Georgi-Glashow Instantons in Weyl Gauge

Gerald V. Dunne, Vishesh Khemani

Semiclassical instanton solutions in the 3D SU(2) Georgi-Glashow model are transformed into the Weyl gauge. This illustrates the tunneling interpretation of these instantons and pr…

Quantum QED Flux Tubes in 2+1 and 3+1 Dimensions

N. Graham, V. Khemani, M. Quandt +2

We compute energies and energy densities of static electromagnetic flux tubes in three and four spacetime dimensions. Our calculation uses scattering data from the potential induce…

Searching for Novel Objects in the Electroweak Theory

Vishesh Khemani

We explore the Higgs-Gauge configuration space in the standard electroweak theory. We outline a general prescription that uses the non-trivial topology associated with the gauge gr…

Quantum Solitons in the Electroweak Theory

Vishesh Khemani

We explore the space of solutions of the classical equations of motion in the Euclidean electroweak theory. We sketch a topological prescription that finds known solutions and indi…
