3--Dimensional Lattice Studies of the Electroweak Phase Transition at M_{Higgs} approx 70 GeV

We study the electroweak phase transition by lattice simulations of an effective 3--dimensional theory, for a Higgs mass of about 70 GeV. Exploiting, among others, a variant of the equal weight criterion of phase equilibrium, we obtain transition temperature, latent heat and surface tension, and compare with M_H approx 35 GeV. In the broken phase masses and Higgs condensates are compared to perturbation theory. For the symmetric phase, bound state masses and the static force are determined.

Perturbative Renormalization of Lattice Bilinear Quark Operators

Our aim is to compute the lower moments of the unpolarized and polarized deep-inelastic structure functions of the nucleon on the lattice. The theoretical basis of the calculation is the operator product expansion. To construct operators with the appropriate continuum behavior out of the bare lattice operators one must absorb the effects of momentum scales far greater than any physical scale into a renormalization of the operators. In this work we compute the renormalization constants of all bilinear quark operators of leading twist and spin up to four. The calculation is done for Wilson fermions and in the quenched approximation where dynamical quark loops are neglected.

$3$--Dimensional Approach to Hot Electroweak Matter for $M_{Higgs} \leq 70$ GeV

We study the electroweak phase transition by lattice simulations of an effective 3-dimensional theory, for a Higgs mass of about $70$ GeV. Exploiting a variant of the equal weight criterion of phase equilibrium, we obtain transition temperature, latent heat and surface tension and compare with $M_H \approx 35$ GeV. For the symmetric phase, bound state masses and the static force are determined and compared with results for pure $SU(2)$ theory.

Non-Perturbative versus Perturbative Renormalization of Lattice Operators

Our objective is to compute the moments of the deep-inelastic structure functions of the nucleon on the lattice. A major source of uncertainty is the renormalization of the lattice operators that enter the calculation. In this talk we compare the renormalization constants of the most relevant twist-two bilinear quark operators which we have computed non-perturbatively and perturbatively to one loop order. Furthermore, we discuss the use of tadpole improved perturbation theory.

A Lattice Evaluation of the Deep-Inelastic Structure Functions of the Nucleon

The lower moments of the unpolarized and polarized deep-inelastic structure functions of the nucleon are calculated on the lattice. The calculation is done with Wilson fermions and for three values of the hopping parameter $κ$, so that we can perform the extrapolation to the chiral limit. Particular emphasis is put on the renormalization of lattice operators. The renormalization constants, which lead us from lattice to continuum operators, are computed perturbatively to one loop order as well as non-perturbatively.

Polarized and Unpolarized Nucleon Structure Functions from Lattice QCD

We report on a high statistics quenched lattice QCD calculation of the deep-inelastic structure functions $F_1$, $F_2$, $g_1$ and $g_2$ of the proton and neutron. The theoretical basis for the calculation is the operator product expansion. We consider the moments of the leading twist operators up to spin four. Using Wilson fermions the calculation is done for three values of $κ$, and we perform the extrapolation to the chiral limit. The renormalization constants, which lead us from lattice to continuum operators, are calculated in perturbation theory to one loop order.

3-D lattice simulation of the electroweak phase transition at small Higgs mass

We study the electroweak phase transition by lattice simulations of an effective 3-dimensional theory, for a Higgs mass of about $35 GeV$. In the broken symmetry phase our results on masses and the Higgs condensate are consistent with 2-loop perturbative results. However, we find a non-perturbative lowering of the transition temperature, similar to the one previously found at $m_H = 80 GeV$. For the symmetric phase, bound state masses and the static force are determined and compared with results for pure $SU(2)$ theory.

Quark-Induced Correlations between Instantons Drive the Chiral Phase Transition

A simple model for the instanton ensemble at finite temperature T is proposed, including ``random" and strongly correlated ``molecular" component. T-dependence of fermionic zero modes naturally leads to chiral symmetry restoration, without instanton suppression. Moreover, at $T=(1-2) T_c$ the non-perturbative effects due to ``molecules" are so strong, that they even dominate the global thermodynamics. % two figures are enclosed as .ps files
