Confinement order parameters and fluctuations
Tina K. Herbst, Jan Luecker, Jan M. Pawlowski
We study order parameters for the confinement-deconfinement phase transition related to the Polyakov-loop variable. The functional renormalisation group is used to compute these or…
Approaching the QCD phase diagram for N_f=2+1 and N_f=2+1+1 quark flavors
Christian A. Welzbacher, Christian S. Fischer, Jan Luecker
Recent results for the QCD phase structure at finite temperature and light-quark chemical potential are summarized, where the cases of N_f = 2 + 1 and N_f = 2+1+1 dynamical quark f…
Locating the critical end point of QCD
Christian S. Fischer, Jan Luecker, Christian A. Welzbacher
We summarize recent results for the phase structure of QCD at finite temperature and light-quark chemical potential for N_f=2+1 and N_f=2+1+1 dynamical quark flavors. We discuss or…
The phase structure of QCD for heavy quarks
Christian S. Fischer, Jan Lücker, Jan M. Pawlowski
We investigate the nature of the deconfinement and Roberge-Weiss transition in the heavy quark regime for finite real and imaginary chemical potential within the functional approac…
Phase structure of three and four flavor QCD
Christian S. Fischer, Jan Luecker, Christian A. Welzbacher
We investigate the phase structure of QCD at finite temperature and light-quark chemical potential. We improve upon earlier results for N_f=2+1 dynamical quark flavors and investig…
Critical Point and Deconfinement from Dyson-Schwinger Equations
Jan Luecker, Christian S. Fischer, Leonard Fister +1
We employ the Dyson-Schwinger equations for quark and gluon propagators in order to study QCD with 2+1 flavours at finite temperature and density. In a suitable truncation for thes…
