The Heavy Quark Free-Energy at T<Tc in AdS/QCD
K. Veshgini, E. Megias, J. Nian +1
Starting with the modified AdS/QCD metric developed in Ref.[1] we use the Nambu-Goto action to obtain the free energy of a quark-antiquark pair at T<Tc, for which we show that the…
Trace Anomaly, Thermal Power Corrections and Dimension Two condensates in the deconfined phase
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
The trace anomaly of gluodynamics on the lattice shows clear fingerprints of a dimension two condensate above the phase transition. The condensate manifests itself through even pow…
The Powers of Deconfinement
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
The trace anomaly of gluodynamics encodes the breakdown of classical scale invariance due to interactions around the deconfinement phase transition. While it is expected that at hi…
The Quantum and Local Polyakov loop in Chiral Quark Models at Finite Temperature
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
We describe results for the confinement-deconfinement phase transition as predicted by the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model where the local and quantum Polyakov loop is coupled to the con…
Chiral Lagrangian at finite temperature from the Polyakov-Chiral Quark Model
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
We analyze the consequences of the inclusion of the gluonic Polyakov loop in chiral quark models at finite temperature. Specifically, the low-energy effective chiral Lagrangian fro…
Polyakov loop at low and high temperatures
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
We describe how the coupling of the gluonic Polyakov loop to quarks solves different inconsistencies in the standard treatment of chiral quark models at finite temperature at the o…
