QCD thermodynamics with N f 2 1 near the continuum limit at realistic quark masses
We report on our study of QCD thermodynamics with 2 ¡ 1 flavors of dynamical quarks. In this proceeding we present several thermodynamic quantities and our recent calculation of the critical temperature. In order to investigate the thermodynamic properties of QCD near the continuum limit we adopt improved staggered (p4) quarks coupled with tree-level Symanzik improved glue on N t ¢ 4 and 6 latt...
متن کاملNonperturbatively Improved Hadron Spectroscopy Near the Continuum Limit
Simulations in full QCD are extremely slow, and are still carried out far from the continuum limit. A possible solution for this problem is the use of improved actions, for which the simulation gives the continuum limit at higher values of the cutoff a, reducing computational costs. An important step in the improvement program was taken recently by the Alpha collaboration, with the nonperturbat...
متن کاملThe Quenched Continuum Limit
Our increasing ability to carry out unquenched simulations means that the quenched approximation is no longer required. There is an outstanding issue associated with the quenched continuum limit, however, which we address here. At the same time we point out the ingredients that are necessary to obtain an accurate result in the continuum limit, since these ingredients will also be important for ...
متن کاملContinuum Reduction and the Thermodynamics of QCD
It is noted that if large Nc continuum reduction applies to an observable, then that observable is independent of temperature for all temperatures below some critical value. This fact, plus the fact that mesons and glueballs are weakly interacting at large Nc is used as the basis for a derivation of large Nc continuum reduction for the chiral condensate. The structure of this derivation is quit...
متن کاملImproved Resummations for the Thermodynamics of the Quark-gluon Plasma∗
At leading order, perturbation theory in the deconfined phase of QCD gives a reasonable estimate of the interaction pressure for temperatures a few times the critical one. But as soon as the beautiful machinery of resummed thermal perturbation theory comes into its own, its poor convergence properties seem to forbid its exploitation except at ridiculously high temperatures (or densities). This ...
