Collisional Energy Loss of Fast Charged Particles in Relativistic Plasmas

Following an argument by Kirzhnits we rederive an exact expression for theenergy loss of a fast charged particle in a relativistic plasma using thequantum field theoretical language. We compare this result to perturbativecalculations of the collisional energy loss of an energetic electron or muon in...

description Following an argument by Kirzhnits we rederive an exact expression for theenergy loss of a fast charged particle in a relativistic plasma using thequantum field theoretical language. We compare this result to perturbativecalculations of the collisional energy loss of an energetic electron or muon inan electron-positron plasma and of an energetic parton in the quark-gluonplasma.
