Towards the chiral critical surface of QCD
Owe Philipsen
The critical endpoint of the QCD phase diagram is usually expected to belong to the chiral critical surface, i.e. the surface of second order transitions bounding the region of fir…
The baryon static potential from lattice QCD
Ph. de Forcrand, O. Jahn
Lattice QCD simulations offer the possibility of determining the potential between three static quarks from first principles. We review the status of such simulations, and the rela…
QCD phase diagram at small densities from simulations with imaginary mu
Ph. de Forcrand, O. Philipsen
We review our results for the QCD phase diagram at baryonic chemical potential mu_B \leq pi T. Our simulations are performed with an imaginary chemical potential mu_I for which the…
Finite temperature Z(N) phase transition with Kaluza-Klein gauge fields
K. Farakos, P. de Forcrand, C. P. Korthals Altes +2
If SU(N) gauge fields live in a world with a circular extra dimension, coupling there only to adjointly charged matter, the system possesses a global Z(N) symmetry. If the radius i…
Chern-Simons number diffusion in (1+1)-dimensional Higgs theory
Ph. de Forcrand, A. Krasnitz, R. Potting
We study the Chern-Simons number diffusion rate in the (1+1)-dimensional latticeAbelian Higgs model at temperatures much higher than, as well as comparable to, the sphaleron energy…
