Hydrogen recombination in the early Universe in the presence of a magnetic field

Hydrogen recombination in the early Universe in the presence of a magnetic field is studied. An equation for the temperature of recombination in the presence of a magnetic field is derived. Limiting cases of weak and strong fields are considered. It is demonstrated that there exists a critical magnetic field, above which the system stays in the phase of atomic hydrogen for all temperatures. The relative shift of the temperature of recombination in the presence of a magnetic field is estimated and it is demonstrated that this shift is small.

Quark-hadron phase transition in a magnetic field

Quark-hadron phase transition in QCD in the presence of magnetic field is studied. It is shown that both the temperature of a phase transition and latent heat decrease compared to the case of zero magnetic field. The phase diagram in the plane temperature--magnetic field is presented. Critical point, T_\ast=104 MeV, \sqrt{eH_\ast}=600 MeV, for which the latent heat goes to zero, is found.

Non-Abelian field strength bilocal correlator at finite temperature in the model of dilute instanton gas

Bilocal correlator in gluodynamics is evaluated at finite temperature in the framework of instanton gas model. It is demonstrated that vacuum correlation length decreases with a growing temperature. Obtained results are compared with lattice data for the bilocal correlator at finite temperature. Density of instantons and possible structures of nonperturbative vacuum are discussed.

Pseudoscalar mesons and their radial excitations from the Effective Chiral Lagrangian

Effective Chiral Lagrangian is derived from QCD in the framework of Field Correlator Method. It contains the effects of both confinement and chiral symmetry breaking due to a special structure of the resulting quark mass operator. It is shown that this Lagrangian describes light pseudoscalar mesons, and Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner relations for pions, eta and K mesons are reproduced. Spectrum of radial excitations of pions and K mesons is found and compared to experimentally known masses.

Instanton infra-red stabilization in the nonperturbative QCD vacuum

The influence of nonperturbative fields on instantons in quantum chromodynamics is studied. Nonperturbative vacuum is described in terms of nonlocal gauge invariant vacuum averages of gluon field strength. Effective action for instanton is derived in bilocal approximation and it is demonstrated that stochastic background gluon fields are responsible for infra-red (IR)stabilization of instantons. Comparison of obtained instanton size distribution with lattice data is made.

Instanton IR stabilization in the nonperturbative confining vacuum

The influence of nonperturbative fields on instantons in quantum chromodynamics is studied. Nonperturbative vacuum is described in terms of nonlocal gauge invariant vacuum averages of gluon field strength. Effective action for instanton is derived in bilocal approximation and it is demonstrated that stochastic background gluon fields are responsible for infra-red (IR) stabilization of instantons. Dependence of characteristic instanton size on gluon condensate and correlation length in nonperturbative vacuum is found. It is shown that instanton size in QCD is of order of 0.25 fm. Comparison of obtained instanton size distribution with lattice data is made.
