Phase Quenched Lattice QCD at Finite Density and Temperature
نویسندگان
چکیده
We simulate 3-flavour lattice QCD at finite quark-number chemical potential μ in the phasequenched approximation, close to the finite temperature transition. Working close to the critical quark mass, we find no evidence for the expected critical endpoint at small μ . We are performing further simulations aimed at calculating the equation-of-state of this theory outside of the superfluid domain, where its phase structure is expected to mimic the full theory.

The quenched limit of lattice QCD at non - zero baryon number
We discuss the thermodynamics of gluons in the background of static quark sources. In order to do so we formulate the quenched limit of QCD at non-zero baryon number. A first numerical analysis of this system shows that it undergoes a smooth deconfining transition. We find evidence for a region of coexisting phases that becomes broader with increasing baryon number density. Although the action ...

Lattice investigations of QCD at finite temperature have contributed considerably to the current understanding of the transition from the hadronic state of matter to the quark gluon plasma and of the physics of the plasma phase. Mainly due to the ever-present limitations of computational power many analyses have been carried out in the pure gauge sector of QCD such that bulk properties of gluon...

We discuss the quenched limit of lattice QCD at non-zero baryon number density. We find evidence for a mixed phase that becomes broader with increasing baryon number. Although the action is explicitly Z(3) symmetric the Polyakov loop expectation value becomes non-zero already in the low temperature phase. It indicates that the heavy quark potential stays finite at large distances, i.e. the stri...
متن کاملCharmonium near the deconfining transition on the lattice
Investigation of the QCD phase transition at finite temperature and density is one of most important subjects in particle and nuclear physics. To create the quark gluon plasma phase (QGP), in which quarks and gluons are deconfined and the chiral symmetry is restored, the high energy heavy ion collision experiments have been performed and the RHIC experiment at BNL is in progress. The J/ψ suppre...
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...
