Эффективные потенциалы в калибровочных теориях поля

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

An elementary and very efficient method for computing the effective potential of any theory containing scalar bosons is described. Examples include massless scalar electrodynamics and Yang-Mills theories.

Riassunto

Si descrive un metodo elementare molto efficiente per calcolare il potenziale effettivo di qualsiasi teoria che contiene bosoni scalari. Gli esempi comprendono l’elettrodinamica scalare priva di massa e le teorie di Yang-Mills.

Реэюме

Предлагается злементарный и очень зффективный метод для вычисления зффективного потенциала любой теории, содержашей скалярные боэоны. Рассматриваются примеры, которые включают беэмассовую скалярную злектродинамику и теории Янга-Миллса.
