Decoding the phase structure of QCD via particle production at high energy
TL;DR: In this paper, the phase boundary of strongly interacting matter is located and the phase structure of quantum chromodynamics is elucidated by analysing particle production in high-energy nuclear collisions within the framework of statistical hadronization, which accounts for the thermal distribution of particle species.

The Renormalization group and the epsilon expansion
TL;DR: In this paper, the modern formulation of the renormalization group is explained for both critical phenomena in classical statistical mechanics and quantum field theory, and the expansion in ϵ = 4−d is explained [ d is the dimension of space (statistical mechanics) or space-time (quantum field theory)].
Journal ArticleDOI
Confinement of Quarks
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown how to quantize a gauge field theory on a discrete lattice in Euclidean space-time, preserving exact gauge invariance and treating the gauge fields as angular variables.

The order of the quantum chromodynamics transition predicted by the standard model of particle physics
TL;DR: Finite-size scaling analysis shows that the finite-temperature QCD transition in the hot early Universe was not a real phase transition, but an analytic crossover (involving a rapid change, as opposed to a jump, as the temperature varied).
