Brout–Englert–Higgs physics: From foundations to phenomenology
A Maas - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2019 - Elsevier
Abstract Brout–Englert–Higgs physics is one of the most central and successful parts of the
standard model. It is also part of a multitude of beyond-the-standard-model scenarios. The …

Entanglement generation in QED scattering processes
We study real-time meson-meson scattering processes in (1+ 1)-dimensional QED by
means of tensor networks. We prepare initial meson wave packets with given momentum …

Phase transitions in TGFT: a Landau-Ginzburg analysis of Lorentzian quantum geometric models
A bstract In the tensorial group field theory (TGFT) approach to quantum gravity, the basic
quanta of the theory correspond to discrete building blocks of geometry. It is expected that …

Numerical fluid dynamics for FRG flow equations: Zero-dimensional QFTs as numerical test cases. I. The model
The functional renormalization group (FRG) approach is a powerful tool for studies of a large
variety of systems, ranging from statistical physics over the theory of the strong interaction to …

[HTML][HTML] Holism and nonseparability in physics
It has sometimes been suggested that quantum phenomena exhibit a characteristic holism
or nonseparability, and that this distinguishes quantum from classical physics. One puzzling …

Numerical fluid dynamics for FRG flow equations: Zero-dimensional QFTs as numerical test cases. II. Entropy production and irreversibility of RG flows
We demonstrate that the reformulation of renormalization group (RG) flow equations as
nonlinear heat equations has severe implications on the understanding of RG flows in …
