A New Anomaly Matching Condition?
Vineer Bhansali, Stephen D. H. Hsu
We formulate ``Witten'' matching conditions for confining gauge theories. The conditions are analogous to 't Hooft's, but involve Witten's global SU(2) anomaly. Using a group theor…
Metastable Cosmic Strings in Realistic Models
R. Holman, S. D. H. Hsu, T. Vachaspati +1
We investigate the stability of the electroweak Z-string at high temperatures. Our results show that while finite temperature corrections can improve the stability of the Z-string,…
Walking Technicolor and Electroweak Radiative Corrections
Raman Sundrum, Stephen D. H. Hsu
We examine the effect of walking technicolor dynamics on the electroweak parameter and contrast it with the effect of QCD-like technicolor dynamics. Our main tools are the oper…
On tunneling at finite energies and temperatures
Stephen D. H. Hsu
We study the contribution of finite energy tunneling to the total vacuum transition rate in a system at finite temperature. We find that in certain models, such as the 1+1 Abelian…
