Spin impurities, Wilson lines and semiclassics

We consider line defects with large quantum numbers in conformal field theories. First, we consider spin impurities, both for a free scalar triplet and in the Wilson-Fisher <i>O</i>(3) model. For the free scalar triplet, we find a rich phase diagram that includes a perturbative fixed poi...
