Rates for non-perturbative processes in hot non-abelian plasma

Abstract

[Talk given at "Continuous Advances in QCD '98."] I give a simple physical picture of why the rate per unit volume of non-perturbative processes in hot non-Abelian plasmas (such as electroweak baryon number violation in the very early universe) depends on coupling as α5 T4 (1/α). The logarithmic dependence was recently discovered by Bodeker.
