Thermal effective potential of the linear sigma model
Nicholas Petropoulos
We have attempted an approach to the chiral phase transition of QCD using the linear sigma model as an effective theory. In order to get some insight into how the phase transition…

Linear sigma model and chiral symmetry at finite temperature
Nicholas Petropoulos
The chiral phase transition is investigated within the framework of the linear sigma model at finite temperature. We concentrate on the meson sector of the model and calculate the…
