Order of the Roberge-Weiss endpoint (finite size transition) in QCD

Journal Article D'Elia, Massimo ; Sanfilippo, Francesco - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We consider the endpoint of the Roberge-Weiss (RW) first order transition line present for imaginary baryon chemical potentials. We remark that it coincides with the finite size transition relevant in the context of large N{sub c} QCD and study its order in the theory with two degenerate flavors. The RW endpoint is first order in the limit of large and small quark masses, while it weakens for intermediate masses where it is likely in the Ising 3D universality class. Phenomenological implications and further speculations about the QCD phase diagram are discuss0008.

Roberge-Weiss endpoint in N{sub f}=2 QCD

Journal Article Bonati, Claudio ; Cossu, Guido ; D'Elia, Massimo ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We present the results of extensive simulations regarding the critical behavior at the endpoint of the Roberge-Weiss transition for N{sub f}=2 QCD. We confirm early evidence, presented in Ref. [M. D'Elia and F. Sanfilippo, Phys. Rev. D 80, 111501(R) (2009).], according to which the Roberge-Weiss endpoint is first order in the limit of large or small quark masses, and second order for intermediate masses. A systematic study of the transition strength as a function of the quark mass in the first order regions, permits us to estimate the tricritical values of the quark mass separating the second order region frommore » the first order ones.« less

Hard thermal loops, to quadratic order, in the background of a spatial 't Hooft loop

Journal Article Hidaka, Yoshimasa ; Pisarski, Robert D - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We compute the simplest hard thermal loops for a spatial 't Hooft loop in the deconfined phase of a SU(N) gauge theory. We expand to quadratic order about a constant background field A{sub 0}=Q/g, where Q is a diagonal, color matrix and g is the gauge coupling constant. We analyze the problem in sufficient generality that the techniques developed can be applied to compute transport properties in a 'semi'-quark gluon plasma. Notably, computations are done using the double line notation at finite N. The quark self-energy is a Q-dependent thermal mass squared {approx}g{sup 2}T{sup 2}, where T is the temperature,more »« less

1/2-BPS Wilson-'t Hooft loops

Journal Article Bin, Chen ; Wei, He ; Institute of Theoretical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, P.O. Box 2735, Beijing 100080 - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We investigate the 1/2-BPS Wilson-'t Hooft loops in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. We use the bulk D-brane with both electric and magnetic charges to calculate the all-genus contribution of the circular loops. The expectation values of Wilson-'t Hooft loops are in perfect agreement with the result through supersymmetric condition and duality transformation in the gauge theory.

't Hooft loop in SU(2) lattice gauge theories

Journal Article Tomboulis, E - Phys. Rev. D; (United States)

We examine the behavior of the 't Hooft loop (magnetic disorder parameter) for weak coupling (b..-->..infinity) in the standard SU(2) lattice gauge theory. We find that it exhibits length-law falloff due to the presence of dynamical Z/sub 2/ monopoles. These dynamical monopoles are a consequence of the nonconservation of Z/sub 2/ flux, and the possibility of flux spreading in the non-Abelian theory. The implications for quark confinement are discussed.
