Cover Story: Gluons are massless at the level of the fundamental QCD Lagrangian, but acquire an effective mass through the action of the celebrated Schwinger mechanism. The activation of this mechanism hinges on the formation of composite massless poles, which modify the analytic structure of the fundamental vertices of the theory, and induce smoking gun displacements in the corresponding Ward identities. In this article, we elucidate the key notions connected with this special dynamical scenario, placing particular emphasis on the synergy between continuum Schwinger function methods and lattice simulations, and highlighting recent advances that corroborate the action of the Schwinger mechanism in QCD.

Future of Neutron Star Studies with Fast Radio Bursts

  • Sergei B. Popov and
  • Maxim S. Pshirkov

21 March 2023

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) were discovered only in 2007. However, the number of known events and sources of repeating bursts grows very rapidly. In the near future, the number of events will be ≳104 and the number of repeaters ≳100. Present...

Gauge Sector Dynamics in QCD

  • Mauricio Narciso Ferreira and
  • Joannis Papavassiliou

15 February 2023

The dynamics of the QCD gauge sector give rise to non-perturbative phenomena that are crucial for the internal consistency of the theory; most notably, they account for the generation of a gluon mass through the action of the Schwinger mechanism, the...
