Deconfining transition in Full QCD
نویسندگان
چکیده
All of them have a maximum at the same value of T , for a given mq, which defines the line in Fig. 1. For mq > 3 GeV, the maxima of χL diverge proportionally to the volume V , indicating a first order transition. At mq = 0 there are theoretical reasons and numerical indications that the transition is second order [3,1,2]. At intermediate values of mq (tiny part of the line in Fig. 1) the susceptibilities do not diverge with V , and this is interpreted as absence of a phase transition: the line would correspond to a crossover.

Gauge – invariant field – strength correlators in pure
We study by numerical simulations on a lattice the behaviour of the gauge–invariant two– point correlation functions of the gauge–field strengths across the deconfinement phase transition, both for the pure–gauge SU(3) theory and for full QCD with two flavours. Quenched data agree within errors with previous determinations, but have much higher statistics. A best–fit analysis of the data has be...

We discuss different aspects of the quark mass dependence of the chiral and deconfinement transitions. We make predictions for locating the deconfining critical point, by analyzing the mq dependence of the ratio of imaginary and real mass of the Polyakov loop. We then present an effective theory that allows the extraction of coupling constants from available lattice data for the temperature dep...
متن کاملLattice QCD at High Temperature and Density
After a brief introduction into basic aspects of the formulation of lattice regularized QCD at finite temperature and density we discuss our current understanding of the QCD phase diagram at finite temperature. We present results from lattice calculations that emphasize the deconfining as well as chiral symmetry restoring features of the QCD transition, and discuss the thermodynamics of the hig...
متن کاملNotes on the Deconfining Phase Transition
I review the deconfining phase transition in an SU(N) gauge theory without quarks. After computing the interface tension between Z(N) degenerate vacua deep in the deconfined phase, I follow Giovannangeli and Korthals Altes, and suggest a new model for (discrete) Polyakov loop spins. Effective theories for (continuous) Polyakov loop spins are constructed, including those with Z(N) charge greater...
متن کاملOn the Order of the Deconfining Transition in N F = 2 Qcd *
A careful study is made on the lattice of the phase diagram of QCD with two staggered flavors, to investigate the order of the chiral transition of N f = 2 QCD. The specific heat and the susceptibility of the chiral condensate are determined for different spatial sizes of the system, and a finite size scaling analysis provides a determination of the (pseudo)critical indices. The result is a str...
متن کاملSu(4) Pure-gauge String Tensions
In response to recently renewed interests in SU(N) pure-gauge dynamics with large N , both from M/string duality and from finite-temperature QCD phase structure, we calculate string tensions acting between the fundamental 4, diquark 6 and other color charges in SU(4) pure-gauge theory at temperatures below the deconfining phase change and above the bulk phase transition. Our results suggest 4 a...
