Mesonic screening correlators in an external imaginary electric field at finite temperature
Ji-Chong Yang, Zhan Zhao, Xiang-Ning Li +1
External electromagnetic fields provide a useful probe of QCD matter, but real electric fields are hindered by the sign problem, motivating studies with imaginary electric fields.…

Wilson loops with oppositely oriented plaquettes as a probe of center vortex structure
Ji-Chong Yang, Xiang-Ning Li, Zhan Zhao
We study Wilson loops with a nontrivial orientation structure in lattice gauge theory as a probe of the center vortex picture. The observable is a single Wilson loop containing two…
