Finite-temperature Sp(4) Yang-Mills theory: towards the continuum

Fabian Zierler, Ed Bennett, Biagio Lucini +4

We present numerical results obtained in a finite-temperature study of the Sp(4) Yang-Mills theory on the lattice. We study its first-order confinement/deconfinement phase transiti…

Finite-temperature Yang-Mills theories with the density of states method: towards the continuum limit

Ed Bennett, Biagio Lucini, David Mason +4

A first-order, confinement/deconfinement phase transition appears in the finite temperature behavior of many non-Abelian gauge theories. These theories play an important role in pr…

Updates on the density of states method in finite temperature symplectic gauge theories

David Mason, Ed Bennett, Biagio Lucini +4

First-order phase transitions in the early universe have rich phenomenological implications, such as the production of a potentially detectable signal of stochastic relic backgroun…

The density of states method for symplectic gauge theories at finite temperature

Ed Bennett, Biagio Lucini, David Mason +3

We study the finite-temperature behaviour of the Yang-Mills lattice theory in four dimensions, by applying the Logarithmic Linear Relaxation (LLR) algorithm. We demonstrate…

The deconfinement phase transition in gauge theories and the density of states method

David Mason, Biagio Lucini, Maurizio Piai +2

First-order phase transitions in the early universe might produce a detectable background of gravitational waves. As these phase transitions can be generated by new physics, it is…
