The great plasmon puzzle resolved
Description
The apparent gauge fixing dependence of the gluon plasma damping constant has been the source of much controversy. The resolution of this controversy has recently been proven to lie in the inadequacy of the naive loop expansion as a self-consistent approximation scheme. A pedagogical description of the nature of the original controversy and its ultimate resolution is presented. (author) 15 refs.; 1 tab
