Is the Chiral Phase Transition in Non-Compact Lattice QED Driven by Monopole Condensation?

arXiv:hep-lat/9303001 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.53.1508

Abstract

We investigate the recent conjecture that the chiral phase transition in non-compact lattice QED is driven by monopole condensation. The comparison of analytic and numerical results shows that we have a quantitative understanding of monopoles in both the quenched and dynamical cases. We can rule out monopole condensation.
