On credit attribution and research software: A case study from lattice QCD

Alessandro Sciarra

Questions of authorship, credit attribution, and the recognition of research software contributions have become increasingly prominent in continually expanding research areas in wh…

Exact center symmetry and first-order phase transition in QCD with three degenerate dynamical quarks

Gergely Endrodi, Guy D. Moore, Adam Pieczynski +1

We study QCD with three degenerate flavors of dynamical quarks using first-principles lattice simulations. For a specific choice of imaginary isospin chemical potential, this theor…

The chiral phase transition in the 3D Columbia plot

Alessandro Sciarra

The nature of the chiral phase transition of QCD continues to represent a fundamental open problem in the study of strongly interacting matter. In recent years, significant progres…

First-order phase transition in dynamical 3-flavor QCD at imaginary isospin

Gergely Endrodi, Guy D. Moore, Alessandro Sciarra

We revisit QCD with three mass-degenerate quark flavors at an imaginary isospin chemical potential set to 4 pi T/3. This choice corresponds to a special point in the parameter spac…

On the order of the QCD chiral phase transition for different numbers of quark flavours

Francesca Cuteri, Owe Philipsen, Alessandro Sciarra

The nature of the QCD chiral phase transition in the limit of vanishing quark masses has remained elusive for a long time, since it cannot be simulated directly on the lattice and…
