Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking To GR in SO(4,2) Gravitational Yang-Mills Theory
Jack Gegenberg, Gabor Kunstatter
We consider a Yang-Mills type gauge theory of gravity based on the conformal group SO(4,2) coupled to a conformally invariant real scalar field. The goal is to generate fundamental…
The effect of anisotropy on the formation of heavy quarkonium bound states
Margaret E. Carrington, Gabor Kunstatter, Arghya Mukherjee
We study the real part of the static potential of a heavy quark-antiquark system in an anisotropic plasma medium. We use a quasi-particle approach where the collective dynamics of…
Evidence for universal flow and characteristics of early time thermalization in a scalar field model for heavy ion collisions
Margaret E. Carrington, Wade N. Cowie, Gabor Kunstatter +1
We study numerically the evolution of an expanding strongly self-coupled real scalar field. We use a conformally invariant action that gives a traceless energy-momentum tensor and…
