Selfconsistent descriptions of vector-mesons in hot matter revisited

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Technical concepts are presented that improve the selfconsistent treatment of vector-mesons in a hot and dense medium. First applications concern an interacting gas of pions and rho mesons. As an extension of earlier studies we thereby include RPA-type vertex corrections and further use dispersion relations in order to calculate the real part of the vector-meson selfenergy. An improved projection method preserves the four transversality of the vector-meson polarisation tensor throughout the selfconsistent calculations, thereby keeping the scheme void of kinematical singularities.
