Quark-Gluon Plasma Thermalization and Plasma Instabilities
Peter Arnold
In this talk, I review the important role played by plasma instabilities in the thermalization of quark-gluon plasmas at very high energy. [Conference talk presented at Strong and…
Rates for non-perturbative processes in hot non-abelian plasma
Peter Arnold
[Talk given at "Continuous Advances in QCD '98."] I give a simple physical picture of why the rate per unit volume of non-perturbative processes in hot non-Abelian plasmas (suc…
B Violation in the Hot Standard Model
Peter Arnold
I explain, as simply and pedagogically as I can, recent arguments that the high-temperature baryon number violation rate depends on the electroweak coupling as $Γ= # α_\w^5 T^4$ (u…
The Electroweak Phase Transition, Part 1: Review of Perturbative Methods
Peter Arnold
Talk presented at the conference Quarks `94: Vladimir, Russia. I review the successes and limitations of standard perturbative methods for studying the order and strength of the el…
An Overview of the Expansion and the Electroweak Phase Transition
Peter Arnold
Talk presented at the NATO Advanced Workshop on Electroweak Physics and the Early Universe: Sintra, Portugal, 1994. I summarize work done with Larry Yaffe on applying expansion…
A Review of the Instability of Hot Electroweak Theory and its Bounds on and
Peter Arnold
[Talk presented at the International Seminar Quarks `92, Zvenigorod, Russia, May 11-17, 1992.] The electroweak vacuum need not be absolutely stable. For certain top and Higgs masse…
