One-loop corrections to the instanton transition in the two-dimensional Abelian Higgs model

Abstract

We present an evaluation of the fluctuation determinant which appears as a prefactor in the instanton transition rate for the two-dimensional Abelian Higgs model. The corrections are found to change the rate at most by a factor of 2 for 0.4 < MW/MH < 2.0.
