Symmetry aspects of finite-temperature confinement transitions

TL;DR: In this article, a review of analytical and numerical work on confinement phase transitions in finite-temperature Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories is presented, and the role of matter fields as symmetry-breaking perturbations is noted as important to the eventual unraveling of the phase structure of quantum chromodynamics.

Critical Behavior at Finite Temperature Confinement Transitions

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.

Monte Carlo study of SU(2) gauge theory at finite temperature

TL;DR: In this article, the phase transition between the confinement phase and free Coulomb phase of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with lattice cut-off was investigated and the critical temperature was found to be Tc ≈ 160 ± 30 MeV in the absence of quark degrees of freedom.
