Effective Electromagnetic Lagrangian at Finite Temperature and Density in the Electroweak Model

Using the exact propagators in a constant magnetic field, the effective electromagnetic Lagrangian at finite temperature and density is calculated to all orders in the field strength B within the framework of the complete electroweak model, in the weak coupling limit. The partition function and free energy are obtained explicitly and the finite temperature effective coupling is derived in closed form. Some implications of this result, potentially interesting to astrophysics and cosmology, are discussed.

Neutrino self-energy in a magnetized medium in arbitrary $ξ$-gauge

We calculate the one-loop neutrino self-energy in a magnetized plasma to all orders in the magnetic field. The calculation is done in a general gauge. We obtain the dispersion relation and effective potential for neutrinos in a CP-symmetric plasma under various conditions, and show that, while the self-energy depends on the gauge parameter $ξ$, the dispersion relation and effective potential to leading order are independent of it.

Magnetic properties of neutrinos in high temperature SU(2)XU(1) gauge theory

We calculate the finite temperature self-energy for neutrinos in the presence of a constant magnetic field in a medium in the unbroken $SU(2) \otimes U(1)$ model. We obtain the exact dispersion relation for such neutrinos and find that the thermal effective mass is modified by the magnetic field. We also find a simple analytic expression for the dispersion relation and obtain the index of refraction for large neutrino momentum.

Fermion and Anti-Fermion Effective Masses in High Temperature Gauge Theories in $CP$-Asymmetric Background

We calculate the splitting between fermion and anti-fermion effective masses in high temperature gauge theories in the presence of a non-vanishing chemical potential due to the $CP$-asymmetric fermionic background. In particular we consider the case of left-handed leptons in the $SU(2)\otimes U(1)$ theory when the temperature is above $250$ GeV and the gauge symmetry is restored.
