The latent heat (in units of $T_{cr}^4$) is compatible with the predictions of the two-loop effective potential; it is an order of magnitude less than the corresponding SU(2) value. The transition temperature and $<\\varphi^* \\varphi>$ in units of the critical temperature are also compatible with the perturbative results.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "1997-04-09T14:12:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gauge-higgs model", "three-dimensional lattice", "modest lattices approach quite", "infinite volume behaviour", "temperature" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 441026 } } }
