Lattice QCD at finite temperature: Evidence for calorons from the eigenvectors of the Dirac operator

C. Gattringer, M. Göckeler, P. E. L. Rakow +3

We analyze the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the staggered Dirac operator in quenched lattice QCD in the vicinity of the deconfinement phase transition using the Lüscher-Weisz ga…
