In this letter we make use of the Background Field Method (BFM) to compute the effective potential of an SU(2) gauge field theory, in the presence of chemical potential and temperature. The main idea is to consider the chemical potential as the background field. The gauge fixing condition required by the BFM turns out to be exactly the one we found in a previous article in a different context.

    Finite chemical potential splits particle and antiparticle phases in the homogeneous solution of the statistical propagator, yielding a transient interference pattern erased by damping.
