Abstract

We compare the effective dynamics of soft fields, based on temperature field theory, with the mean field dynamics from non-Abelian kinetic theory. We derive the polarization tensor with the leading logarithmic factor log(gT/μ) from the effective Boltzmann–Langevin equation given by Litim and Manuel. The tensor is identical with effective one-loop contributions within the hard thermal loop effective theory.
