会議名: Gauging charge conjugation symmetry: an instructive example
連絡先: 丹後
講演者: Prof. Sander (F.A.) Bais  (University of Amsterdam)
講演言語: 英語
アブストラクト: This talk is about the hypothetical possibility that charge conjugation symmetry would be gauged. We analyze this situation using the Alice electrodynamics model as a guiding example. These theories differ from ordinary electrodynamics in a few subtle and at the same time drastic effects such as Alice strings, core instabilities of monopoles and the possibility of non-localizable charges. The effects are basically all topological in nature. In the talk I give an introduction to some of these exotic phenomena and report on some numerical results and will comment on the feasibility of such scenarios.
