Update on Nf=3 finite temperature QCD phase structure with Wilson-Clover fermion action

Abstract

We present an update of the finite temperature phase structure analysis for three flavor QCD. In the study the Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturvatively O($a$) improved Wilson-Clover fermion action are employed. We discuss finite size scaling analysis including mixings of magnetization-like and energy-like observables. Preliminary results are shown of the continuum limit of the critical point using newly generated data at Nt=8,10, including estimates of the critical pseudo-scalar meson mass and critical temperature.
