Coupled Gap Equations for the Screening Masses in Hot SU(N) Gauge Theory
arXiv:hep-ph/9711263 · doi:10.1007/s100520050277
Abstract
Coupled 1-loop gap equations are studied numerically for non-Abelian electric and magnetic screening in various versions of the three-dimensional effective gauge models. Corrections due to higher dimensional and non-local operators are assessed quantitatively. Comparison with numerical Monte-Carlo investigations suggests that quantitative understanding beyond the qualitative features can be achieved only by going beyond the present treatment.
