Quantum Field Theory, Effective Potentials and Determinants of Elliptic Operators

Paul, Percy Louis (2010-04)

The effective potential augments the classical potential with the quantum effects of virtual particles, and permits the study of spontaneous symmetry breaking. In contrast to the standard approach where the classical ...
Second-order contributions to the non-exotic light hybrid meson correlation function (J^{PC}=1^{--}) in the chiral limit

Ratzlaff, Melissa Anne (2010-08)

Elementary particles form hadrons through the strong interaction; one interpretation of a possible hadron bound-state is a hybrid meson which is composed of a quark-antiquark pair and gluonic content. Non-exotic hybrid ...
Study of the high-latitude ionosphere with the Rankin Inlet PolarDARN radar

Liu, Heng (2010-03)

The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) of HF coherent radars has been originally designed to monitor echoes, and thus study physical processes, from within the auroral oval, the area with the most frequent ...
