Lattice QCD Simulations in External Background Fields

Massimo D'Elia

We discuss recent results and future prospects regarding the investigation, by lattice simulations, of the non-perturbative properties of QCD and of its phase diagram in presence o…

Susceptibility of the QCD vacuum to CP-odd electromagnetic background fields

Massimo D'Elia, Marco Mariti, Francesco Negro

We investigate two flavor QCD in presence of CP-odd electromagnetic background fields and determine, by means of lattice QCD simulations, the induced effective theta term to the fi…

Theta dependence of the deconfinement temperature in Yang-Mills theories

Massimo D'Elia, Francesco Negro

We determine the theta dependence of the deconfinement temperature of SU(3) pure gauge theory, finding that it decreases in presence of a topological theta term. We do that by perf…

The critical line of two-flavor QCD at finite isospin or baryon densities from imaginary chemical potentials

P. Cea, L. Cosmai, M. D'Elia +2

We determine the (pseudo)critical lines of QCD with two degenerate staggered fermions at nonzero temperature and quark or isospin density, in the region of imaginary chemical poten…

Constraints on the two-flavor QCD phase diagram from imaginary chemical potential

Claudio Bonati, Philippe de Forcrand, Massimo D'Elia +2

We review our knowledge of the phase diagram of QCD as a function of temperature, chemical potential and quark masses. The presence of tricritical lines at imaginary chemical poten…
