High temperature meson propagators with domain-wall quarks
J. -F. Lagae, D. K. Sinclair
We study the chiral properties of domain-wall quarks at high temperatures on an ensemble of quenched configurations. Low lying eigenmodes of the Dirac operator are calculated and u…
Local topological and chiral properties of QCD
Ph. de Forcrand, M. Garcia Perez, J. E. Hetrick +3
To elucidate the role played by instantons in chiral symmetry breaking, we explore their properties in full QCD, around the critical temperature. We study in particular spatial cor…
Domain wall fermions at finite temperature
J. -F. Lagae, D. K. Sinclair
We investigate the properties of domain wall fermions on a set of quenched configurations at non-zero temperature. In particular, we compute the low lying eigenvalues of the DWF op…
Thermodynamics of Lattice QCD with massless quarks and chiral 4-fermion interactions
J. B. Kogut, J. -F. Lagae, D. K. Sinclair
We have simulated lattice QCD with an irrelevant 4-fermion interaction and 2 zero mass quarks. The chiral phase transition is observed to be second order and we discuss extraction…
Improved staggered quark actions with reduced flavour symmetry violations for lattice QCD
J. -F. Lagae, D. K. Sinclair
We introduce a new class of actions for staggered quarks in lattice QCD which significantly reduce flavour symmetry violations in the pion mass spectrum. An action introduced by th…
Thermodynamics of Lattice QCD with 2 Quark Flavours: Chiral Symmetry and Topology
J. -F. Lagae, D. K. Sinclair, J. B. Kogut
We have studied the restoration of chiral symmetry in lattice QCD at the finite temperature transition from hadronic matter to a quark-gluon plasma. By measuring the screening mass…
