چکیده
We calculate the free energy of static quark anti-quark pair and the renormalized Polyakov loop in 2+1-and 3-flavor QCD using 16 3 × 4 and 16 3 × 6 lattices and improved staggered p4 action. We also compare the renormalized Polyakov loop with the results of earlier studies.

We present results from a detailed study of singlet free energies in full QCD with realistic quark masses. An improved scheme for the non-perturbative renormalization of the Polyakov loop is used and we compare its temperature dependence for QCD with different flavor content. We also analyze screening masses extracted from singlet free energies at various temperatures close to and above the QCD...
متن کاملHeavy quark thermodynamics in full QCD
We analyze the large-distance behaviour of static quark-anti-quark pair correlations in QCD. The singlet free energy is calculated and the entropy contribution to it is identified allowing us to calculate the excess internal energy. The free energy has a sharp drop in the critical region, leading to sharp peaks in both excess entropy and internal energy. PACS numbers: 11.15.Ha, 11.10.Wx, 12.38....
متن کاملFree energies of heavy quarks in full-QCD lattice simulations with Wilson-type quark action
The free energy between a static quark and an antiquark is studied by using the color-singlet Polyakov-line correlation at finite temperature in lattice QCD with 2+1 flavors of improved Wilson quarks. From the simulations on 323 × 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 lattices in the high temperature phase, based on the fixed scale approach, we find that, the heavy-quark free energies at short distance converge to t...
متن کاملHeavy Quark Free Energies and Screening in Su(2) Gauge Theory *
We investigate the singlet, triplet and colour average heavy quark free energies in SU (2) pure gauge theory at various temperatures T. We focus on the long distance behaviour of the free energies, studying in particular the temperature dependence of the string tension and the screening masses. The results are qualitatively similar to the SU (3) scenario, except near the critical temperature Tc...
متن کاملHeavy quark free energies and screening at finite temperature and density
We study the free energies of heavy quarks calculated from Polyakov loop correlation functions in full 2-flavour QCD using the p4-improved staggered fermion action. A small but finite baryon number density is included via Taylor expansion of the fermion determinant in the baryo-chemical potential µ. For temperatures above T c we extract Debye screening masses from the large distance behaviour o...
