A new sphaleron in SU(3) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory — •Pascal Nagel and Frans Klinkhamer — Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), Karlsruhe, Deutschland

The sphaleron solution S is known to contribute to baryon-number violation within the electroweak Standard Model. To gain further insight into the nonperturbative dynamics of QCD (and GUTs), we study a new sphaleron solution of SU(3) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory, the solution S. Two independent numerical approaches yield solutions of the reduced field equations and a surprising structure of the energy barrier in configuration space.
