CosmoLattice: A modern code for lattice simulations of scalar and gauge field dynamics in an expanding universe

Daniel Garcia Figueroa, Adrien Florio, Wessel Valkenburg

This paper describes CosmoGattice, a modern package for lattice simulations of the dynamics of interacting scalar and gauge fields in an expanding universe. CosmoGattice incorporates a series of features that makes it very versatile and powerful: i) it is ...

Investigation and Validation of Unstructured Mesh Methodologies for Modeling Experimental Reactors

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Carlo Fiorina, Tom Mager

This paper summarizes a methodology developed at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne for the neutronic modeling of the CROCUS experimental reactor and proposes solutions to the challenges one may face while modeling a research reactor with a complex g ...

Collective behavior and emerging patterns in dense dry aligning active matter

Elena Sesé Sansa

In this thesis, we study systems of active particles interacting via generic torques of different nature. We analyze the phase behavior of these systems, which results from the interplay between self-propulsion, excluded-volume and torques. We tackle the p ...

Gauge Equivariant Neural Networks for Quantum Lattice Gauge Theories

Giuseppe Carleo

Gauge symmetries play a key role in physics appearing in areas such as quantum field theories of the fundamental particles and emergent degrees of freedom in quantum materials. Motivated by the desire to efficiently simulate many-body quantum systems with ...

Aspects of Gauge Theories Vacua

Adrien Florio

This thesis is concerned with gauge theories, their complicated vacuum and resulting effects. After an introduction to the subject, it is divided into four parts. Firstly, we treat the problem of chiral charge dynamics at finite temperature. Quantum field ...

Chiral charge dynamics in Abelian gauge theories at finite temperature

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Daniel Garcia Figueroa, Adrien Florio

We study fermion number non-conservation (or chirality breaking) in Abelian gauge theories at finite temperature. We consider the presence of a chemical potential mu for the fermionic charge, and monitor its evolution with real-time classical lattice simul ...

Complex heavy-quark potential and Debye mass in a gluonic medium from lattice QCD

Yannis Burnier

We improve and extend our study of the complex in-medium heavy-quark potential and its Debye mass m(D) in a gluonic medium with a finer scan around the deconfinement transition and newly generated ensembles closer to the thermodynamic limit. On the lattice ...

A gauge invariant Debye mass and the complex heavy-quark potential

Yannis Burnier

Following the original idea of Debye, we define and extract a gauge-invariant screening mass from the complex static in-medium heavy-quark potential V-Q (Q) over bar, recently obtained from lattice QCD. To this end we derive a formula using concepts from b ...

Spectral properties of a symmetric three-dimensional quantum dot with a pair of identical attractive delta-impurities symmetrically situated around the origin

In this presentation, we wish to provide an overview of the spectral features for the self-adjoint Hamiltonian of the three-dimensional isotropic harmonic oscillator perturbed by either a single attractive delta-interaction centered at the origin or by a p ...

The Bayesian reconstruction of the in-medium heavy quark potential from lattice QCD and its stability

Yannis Burnier

We report recent results of a non-perturbative determination of the static heavy-quark potential in quenched and dynamical lattice QCD at finite temperature. The real and imaginary part of this complex quantity are extracted from the spectral function of W ...

A variational investigation of the SU(N) Heisenberg model in antisymmetric irreducible representations

Jérôme Dufour

Motivated by recent experimental progress in the context of ultra-cold multi-colour fermionic atoms in optical lattices, this thesis investigates the properties of the antiferromagnetic SU(N) Heisenberg models with fully antisymmetric irreducible represent ...

Static Quark-Antiquark Potential in the Quark-Gluon Plasma from Lattice QCD

Yannis Burnier

We present a state-of-the-art determination of the complex valued static quark-antiquark potential at phenomenologically relevant temperatures around the deconfinement phase transition. Its values are obtained from nonperturbative lattice QCD simulations u ...

Quarkonium spectral function in medium at next-to-leading order for any quark mass

Yannis Burnier

The vector channel spectral function at zero spatial momentum is calculated at next-to-leading order in thermal QCD for any quark mass. It corresponds to the imaginary part of the massive quark contribution to the photon polarisation tensor. The spectrum s ...

Growth Typologies, Localities and Defamiliarisation Experiments with Artificial Urbanism in Sichuan, Guangzhou and Beijing

Jeffrey Huang

The unprecedented speed of urbanization in Asia calls for a fundamental rethinking of urbanism. Conventional master plans typically propose a single static ‘end’ condition derived from top-down visions, often incapable of responding to site-specific microc ...

Review of Particle Physics, Particle Data Group

Olivier Schneider, Pierre Vogel, Christophe Bauer, Greig Alan Cowan

This biennial Review summarizes much of particle physics. Using data from previous editions, plus 2658 new measurements from 644 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We summarize ...

Perturbation Theory Of The Cosmological Log-Density Field

Julien Lesgourgues

The matter density field exhibits a nearly lognormal probability density distribution after entering into the nonlinear regime. Recently, it has been shown that the shape of the power spectrum of a logarithmically transformed density field is very close to ...

A Framework for Numerical Simulations of Structure Formation

Claude Becker

In the absence of a full analytical treatment of nonlinear structure formation in the universe, numerical simulations provide the critical link between the properties of the underlying model and the features of the observed structures. Currently N-body sim ...

Quantum scale invariance on the lattice

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Igor Tkachev

We propose a scheme leading to a non-perturbative definition of lattice field theories which are scale-invariant on the quantum level. A key idea of the construction is the replacement of the lattice spacing by a propagating dynamical field - the dilaton. ...
