Yang-Mills vacuum instability due to infrared finite lattice gluon propagator

Using the effective potential approach for composite operators, we have analytically evaluated the truly nonperturbative vacuum energy density as obtained by using a model infrared finite gluon propagator which was suggested by lattice simulations. The truly nonperturbative vacuum energy density is defined as the truly nonperturbative part of the full gluon propagator integrated over the deep infrared region (soft momentum region). With this definition, it is a manifestly gauge invariant quantity. We have explicitly shown that the corresponding effective potential has always an imaginary part which means that the vacuum of this model is unstable. Thus this model cannot have a true ground state.

Are There Top Quarks In Superdense Hybrid Stars?

It is examined whether primordial top quarks from the Big Bang could survive under natural conditions till present days. Hybrid quark-neutron stars, with dense enough core to maintain the existence of top quarks, is discussed. In this paper only final states are investigated. Zero temperature quark-lepton matter is modelled as as a gas of non-interacting particles. Local charge neutrality has been assumed in order to avoid volume interactions which would not make thermodynamical treatment possible.

Quenched Hadrons using Wilson and O(a)-Improved Fermion Actions at beta=6.2

We present the first study of the light hadron spectrum and decay constants for quenched QCD using an O(a)-improved nearest-neighbour Wilson fermion action at β=6.2. We compare the results with those obtained using the standard Wilson fermion action, on the same set of 18 gauge field configurations of a 24^3 times 48 lattice. For pseudoscalar meson masses in the range 330-800 MeV, we find no significant difference between the results for the two actions. The scales obtained from the string tension and mesonic sector are consistent, but differ from that derived from baryon masses. The ratio of the pseudoscalar decay constant to the vector meson mass is roughly independent of quark mass as observed experimentally, and in approximate agreement with the measured value.
