Chiral charge dynamics in Abelian gauge theories at finite temperature

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