Magnetic Mass in Hot Scalar Electrodynamics
Abstract
Using the Slavnov-Taylor identities we prove that the so-called "magnetic mass" is exactly equal to zero within hot scalar electrodynamics. The same result is valid for hot QED and seems for any abelian theory but this is not the case for hot QCD where one expects that 0.
