The axial anomaly in QCD at finite temperature
Thomas Schaefer
We study flavor mixing and the axial anomaly in QCD at zero and finite temperature. Using the instanton liquid model, we show that the strength of the anomaly is essentially unchan…

The Chiral Phase Transition
Thomas Schaefer
I review the current understanding of the chiral phase transition in QCD, with particular emphasis on recent results obtained in the instanton liquid model.
