Which Chiral Symmetry is Restored in High Temperature QCD?

Claude Bernard, Tom Blum, Carleton DeTar +7

Sigma models for the high temperature phase transition in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) suggest that at high temperature the SU(N_f) x SU(N_f) chiral symmetry becomes exact, but the…

Non-perturbative determination of the axial current normalization constant in O(a) improved lattice QCD

Martin Lüscher, Stefan Sint, Rainer Sommer +1

A finite-size technique is employed to compute the normalization constant of the isovector axial current in lattice QCD. The calculation is carried out in the quenched approx…

Exotic hybrid mesons with light quarks

Claude Bernard, Tom Blum, Thomas A. DeGrand +9

Hybrid mesons, made from a quark, an antiquark and gluons, can have quantum numbers inaccessible to conventional quark-antiquark states. Confirmation of such states would give info…
