手征不平衡Dirac费米子的自发手征对称性破缺和手征磁效应

Spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and the Chiral Magnetic Effect for interacting Dirac fermions with chiral imbalance

P. V. Buividovich

摘要:

利用平均场方法研究了具有接触相互作用的Dirac费米子在非零手征化学势模型下的手征对称性自发破缺.指出手征不平衡降低了狄拉克费米子的真空能,导致手征对称性破缺时重整化手征化学势的增加.随着手性化学势的增加,转变为破缺相的临界耦合强度略有降低,并且转变本身变得更温和。此外,我们还研究了不同相态的手征磁导率,发现手征磁导率在微扰弱耦合区和手征对称性破缺的强耦合区都有增长。在强耦合区,手征磁效应被具有混合横极化的类矢量束缚态(矢量介子)饱和。一般模式的介子混合的手征不平衡的存在下也被认为是。我们讨论了Weyl半金属和强相互作用QCD物质的相关性。最后,我们评论了在手征不平衡的存在下狄拉克费米子真空能量正则化的模糊性。

英文摘要:

We report on a mean-field study of spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry for Dirac fermions with contact interactions in the presence of chiral imbalance, which is modelled by nonzero chiral chemical potential. We point out that chiral imbalance lowers the vacuum energy of Dirac fermions, which leads to the increase of the renormalized chiral chemical potential upon chiral symmetry breaking. The critical coupling strength for the transition to the broken phase is slightly lowered as the chiral chemical potential is increased, and the transition itself becomes milder. Furthermore, we study the chiral magnetic conductivity in different phases and find that it grows both in the perturbative weak-coupling regime and in the strongly coupled phase with broken chiral symmetry. In the strong coupling regime the chiral magnetic effect is saturated by vector-like bound states (vector mesons) with mixed transverse polarizations. General pattern of meson mixing in the presence of chiral imbalance is also considered. We discuss the relevance of our study for Weyl semimetals and strongly interacting QCD matter. Finally, we comment on the ambiguity of the regularization of the vacuum energy of Dirac fermions in the presence of chirality imbalance.
