Thermodynamics of SU(3) lattice gauge theory

G. Boyd, +6 more
- 17 Jun 1996 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the pressure and energy density of the SU(3) gauge theory are calculated on lattices with temporal extent N-tau = 4, 6 and 8 and spatial extent n-sigma = 16 and 32.

Critical Behavior at Finite Temperature Confinement Transitions

Benjamin Svetitsky, +2 more
- 13 Dec 1982 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the U(1) theory possesses only short-range couplings, and hence the finite-temperature confinement phase transition (when continuous) is accompanied by long-range fluctuations only in the order parameter.

Lattice QCD at High Temperature and Density

Frithjof Karsch
- 26 Jun 2001 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors 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 high temperature phase.

QCD forces and heavy quark bound states

Gunnar S. Bali
- 01 Mar 2001 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the present knowledge of QCD confining forces between static test charges is summarised, with an emphasis on lattice results, and the validity of non-relativistic QCD and the adiabatic approximation with respect to heavy quark bound states is explored.

THE ROLE OF INSTANTONS IN QUANTUM CHROMODYNAMICS (I). Physical vacuum

Edward Shuryak
- 09 Aug 1982 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that the physical QCD vacuum is similar to the "instanton liquid" with density dn/dϱ = nc(gd(ϱ−ϱc), where n c ⋍ 8 · 10 −4 GeV 4 and ϱ c⋍ 1 600 GeV.

Superdense Matter: Neutrons Or Asymptotically Free Quarks?

John Collins, +1 more
- 26 May 1975 - 
TL;DR: The quark model implies that superdense matter (found in neutron star cores, exploding black holes, and the early big-bang universe) consists of quarks rather than of hadrons as discussed by the authors.
