In SU(2) gluodynamics, the Debye gluon contribution W_D(A_0) to the effective action of the temporal gauge field component, A_0 = const, at high temperature is calculated in the background R^{xi} gauge. It is shown that at nonzero A_0 the standard definition k_0 = 0, |k| -> 0 corresponds to long distance correlations for the longitudinal in internal space gluons. The transversal gluons become screened by the A_0 background field. Therefore they give zero contributions and have to be excluded from the correlation corrections. The total effective action accounting for the one-loop, two-loop and correct W_D(A_0) satisfies Nielsens identity that proves gauge invariance of the A_0 condensation phenomenon.

We analyze the decays $B^0 to a^pm_0 pi^mp$ and $B^{-,0} to f_0 K^{-,0}$ and show that within the factorization approximation a phenomenological consistent picture can be obtained. We show that in this approach the $O_6$ operator provides the dominant contributions to the suppressed channel $B^0 to a^+_0 pi^-$. When the $a_0$ is considered a two quark state, evaluation of the annihilation form factor using Perturbative $QCD$ implies that this contribution is not negligible, and furthermore it can interfere constructively or destructively with other penguin contributions. As a consequence of this ambiguity, the positive identification of $B^0 to pi^+ a_0^-$ can not distinguish between the two or four quark assignment of the $a_0$. According to our calculation, a best candidate to distinguish the nature of $a_0$ scalar is $Br(B^-to pi^0a_0^-)$ since the predictions for a four quark model is one order of magnitude smaller than for the two quark assignment. When the scalars are seen as two quarks states, simple theoretical assumptions based on SU(2) isospin symmetry provide relations between different B decays involving one scalar and one pseudoscalar meson.
Thanks to dimensional reduction, the contributions to the hot QCD pressure coming from so-called soft modes can be studied via an effective three-dimensional theory named Electrostatic QCD (spatial Yang-Mills fields plus an adjoint Higgs scalar). The poor convergence of the perturbative series within EQCD suggests to perform lattice measurements of some of the associated gluon condensates. These turn out, however, to be plagued by large discretization artifacts. We discuss how Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory can be exploited to determine the full lattice spacing dependence of one of these condensates up to 4-loop order, and sharpen our tools on a concrete 2-loop example.
The $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing is one of the most potential tools to learn about the nature of $a_0^0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. Using the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ measured recently at BESIII, we calculate the the branching ratio of the the isospin violation decay $J/psi rightarrowgammaeta_c rightarrow gamma pi^0 a_0^0(1450)rightarrow gamma pi^0 a_0^0(980)f_0(500)rightarrow gamma pi^0 f_0(980) f_0(500) rightarrow gamma pi^0 pi^+pi^- pi^+pi^-$. The value of the branching ratio is found to be $O(10^{-6})$, which can be observed with $10^{10}$ $J/psi$ events collected at BESIII. The narrow peak from the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing in the $pi^+pi^-$ mass square spectrum can also be observed. In addition, we study the non-resonant decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) pi^+pi^-(text{non-resonant})$, which is dominated by the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_{0}(980)$ mixing. We find that the non-resonant decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) pi^+pi^-$ and the decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) f_0(500)$ can be combined to measure the mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ in experiment. These decays are the perfect complement to the decay $chi_{c1}rightarrow f_{0}(980)pi^{0}topi^{+}pi^{-}pi^{0}$ which had been observed at BESIII, the observations of them will make the measurement of the mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ more precisely.
The deconfinement phase transition is studied in the ensemble canonical with respect to triality. Since this ensemble implies a projection to the zero triality sector of the theory we introduce a quantity which is insensitive to $Z(N_c)$ symmetry but can reveal a critical behaviour in the theory with dynamical quarks. Further, we argue that in the canonical ensemble description of full QCD there exist domains of different $Z(N_c)$ phases which are degenerate and possess normal physical properties. This contradicts the predictions of the grand canonical ensemble. We propose a new order parameter to test the realization of the discrete $Z(N_c)$ symmetry at finite temperature and calculate it for the case of $Z(2)$ gauge fields coupled to fundamental fermions.
Nanometer-sized metal particles exhibit broadening of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in comparison to its value predicted by the classical Mie theory. Using our model for the LSPR dependence on non-local surface screening and size quantization, we quantitatively relate the observed plasmon width to the nanoparticle radius $R$ and the permittivity of the surrounding medium $epsilon_m$. For Ag nanospheres larger than 8 nm only the non-local dynamical effects occurring at the surface are important and, up to a diameter of 25 nm, dominate over the bulk scattering mechanism. Qualitatively, the LSPR width is inversely proportional to the particle size and has a nonmonotonic dependence on the permittivity of the host medium, exhibiting for Ag a maximum at $epsilon_mapprox2.5$. Our calculated LSPR width is compared with recent experimental data.
