Chiral symmetry restoration at finite temperature in the planar limit
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate numerically chiral symmetry restoration at finite temperature in the planar limit in the deconfined phase, both when it is stable and when the system is supercooled. We find chiral symmetry restoration at Tχ = Td, where Td is the temperature of the deconfinement transition in pure gauge theory and Tχ < Td in the supercooled deconfined phase. In the stable case the spectrum of the Dirac operator opens a gap in a discontinuous manner and in the supercooled phase the gap seems to vanish continuously.

More about chiral symmetry restoration at finite temperature in the planar limit
In the planar limit, in the deconfined phase, the Euclidean Dirac operator has a spectral gap around zero. We show that functions of eigenvalues close to the spectral edge, which are independent of common rescalings and shifts gauge configuration by gauge configuration, have distributions described by a Gaussian Hermitian matrix model. However, combinations of eigenvalues that are scale and shi...
متن کاملChiral symmetry breaking and restoration from holography
We study intersection of Nc color D4 branes with topology R 1,3 × S with radius Rτ of S with Nf Dp-branes and anti-Dp branes in the strong coupling limit in the probe approximation. The resulting model has U(Nf )× U(Nf ) global symmetry. This is interpreted as the chiral symmetry group in this geometric setting. We see an n dimensional theory for n overlapping directions between color and flavo...
متن کاملDeconfinement and Chiral Restoration in Hot and Dense Matter
It is widely accepted that Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) has phase transitions at high temperature, the nature of which depends on the quark mass, mq. In the limit of mq = 0, QCD has chiral symmetry, SUL(Nf)× SUR(Nf), in the case of Nf flavors, that spontaneously breaks into SUV(Nf) at low temperatures. The chiral condensate, 〈q̄q〉, serves as an order parameter for chiral restoration at high temp...
متن کاملDeconfinement through Chiral Symmetry Restoration in Two-Flavour QCD
We propose that in QCD with dynamical quarks, colour deconfinement occurs when an external field induced by the chiral condensate strongly aligns the Polyakov loop. This effect sets in at the chiral symmetry restoration temperature Tχ and thus makes deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration coincide. The predicted singular behaviour of Polyakov loop susceptibilities at Tχ is shown to be sup...
متن کاملpion effects on the chiral phase transition
We investigate the chiral phase transition at finite temperatures and zero chemical potential with Dyson-Schwinger equations. Our truncation for the quark-gluon interaction includes mesonic degrees of freedom, which allows us to study the impact of the pions on the nature of the phase transition. Within the present scheme we find a five percent change of the critical temperature due to the pion...
