Anomalous electrodynamics of neutral pion matter in strong magnetic fields
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-03)The ground state of quantum chromodynamics in sufficiently strong external magnetic fields and at moderate baryon chemical potential is a chiral soliton lattice (CSL) of neutral pions [1]. We investigate the interplay ... -
Chiral and deconfinement transitions in a magnetic background using the functional renormalization group with the Polyakov loop
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-04)We use the Polyakov loop coupled quark-meson model to approximate low energy QCD and present results for the chiral and deconfinement transitions in the presence of a constant magnetic background B at finite temperature T ... -
Chiral soliton lattice and charged pion condensation in strong magnetic fields
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-04)The Chiral Soliton Lattice (CSL) is a state with a periodic array of topological solitons that spontaneously breaks parity and translational symmetries. Such a state is known to appear in chiral magnets. We show that CSL ... -
Dimensional reduction of the Standard Model coupled to a new singlet scalar field
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)We derive an effective dimensionally reduced theory for the Standard Model augmented by a real singlet scalar. We treat the singlet as a superheavy field and integrate it out, leaving an effective theory involving only the ... -
Simulations of "tunnelling of the 3rd kind"
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07)We consider the phenomenon of “tunnelling of the 3rd kind” [1], whereby a magnetic field may traverse a classically impenetrable barrier by pair creation of unimpeded quantum fermions. These propagate through the barrier ... -
Simulations of Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis: finding the optimal quench time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07)We revisit the numerical computation of the baryon asymmetry from Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis given the physical Higgs mass. We investigate the dependence of the asymmetry on the speed at which electroweak symmetry ... -
Simulations of Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis: hypercharge U(1) and the creation of helical magnetic fields
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-06)We perform numerical simulations of Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis, including for the first time in the Bosonic sector the full electroweak gauge group SU(2) × U(1) and CP-violation. We find that the maximum generated baryon ...
