โœฆ Synopsis

We examine the relation between the damping rate of a chiral fermion mode propagating in a hot plasma and the rate at which the mode approaches equilibrium. We show that these two quantities, obtained from the imaginary part of the fermion self-energy, are equal provided the reaction rate is defined using the appropriate wave function of the mode in the medium.

We study the efficiency of trial distributions in the Metropolis algorithm test for the SU(2) Wilson action. The acceptance rate of trial matrices in the Metropolis test and the correlations of results are measured for distributions peaked around the identity. Away from the strong coupling region, w
