Abstract

The behavior of Wilson lines in representations {ital J}=1/2, 1, and 3/2 in the critical region of the deconfined phase of finite-temperature, SU(2), lattice gauge theory is studied. Theoretical considerations based on a flux model and on the three-dimensional {phi}{sup 4} model predict {l angle}{ital L}{sub 1}{r angle}{r arrow}{ital const} and {l angle}{ital L}{sub 3/2}{r angle}{proportional to}{l angle}{ital L}{sub 1/2}{r angle} as {ital T}{r arrow}{ital T}{sub {ital c}}{sup +}. For {ital T} sufficiently close to {ital T}{sub {ital c}}, Monte Carlo data favor these predictions over the mean-field result {l angle}{ital L}{sub {ital J}}{r angle}{proportional to}{l angle}{ital L}{sub 1/2}{r angle}{sup 2{ital J}}.

Finite-temperature phase transition of SU(3) gauge theory on N sub t =4 and 6 lattices

Journal Article Iwasaki, Y ; Kanaya, K ; Yoshie, T ; ... - Physical Review, D (Particles Fields); (United States)

The deconfining finite-temperature transition of SU(3) gauge theory is studied on the dedicated parallel computer QCDPAX. Monte Carlo simulations are performed on 12{sup 2}{times}24{times}4, 24{sup 2}{times}36{times}4, 20{sup 3}{times}6, 24{sup 3}{times}6, and 36{sup 2}{times}48{times}6 lattices with 376 000 to 1 112 000 iterations. The finite size scaling behavior of the first-order transition is confirmed both on the {ital N}{sub {ital t}}=4 and {ital N}{sub {ital t}}=6 lattices and clear two-phase structures are observed on spatially large lattices (24{sup 2}{times}36{times}4 and 36{sup 2}{times}48{times}6). The latent heat at the deconfining transition is estimated both by a direct measurement of the gap on themore »« less

Flux tubes in three-dimensional lattice gauge theories

Journal Article Trottier, H D ; Woloshyn, R M - Physical Review, D (Particles Fields); (United States)

Measurements of flux tubes generated by sources in different representations of SU(2) and U(1) lattice gauge theory in three dimensions are reported. Heavy quarks'' are considered in three representations of SU(2): fundamental ([ital j]=1/2), adjoint ([ital j]=1), and quartet ([ital j]=3/2). Wilson loops are used to introduce a static quark-antiquark ([ital Q][sub [ital j][bar Q][ital j]]) pair. Several attributes of the fields generated by the [ital Q][sub [ital j][bar Q][ital j]] pair are measured. In particular, the first direct lattice measurements of the flux-tube cross section [ital scrA][sub [ital j]] as a junction of representation are made. It is foundmore »« less

Wilson line in finite-temperature gauge theories

Journal Article Weiss, N - Phys. Rev. D; (United States)

The phases of SU(N) gauge theories at finite temperature can be analyzed in terms of the Wilson line L(x) = TrP exp(ig..integral../sub 0//sup ..beta../A/sub 0/(x,tau)dtau). The question of confinement is related to the spontaneous breakdown of a Z(N) symmetry: not =0 corresponds to symmetry breaking and deconfinement, = 0 implies symmetry restoration and confinement. A previous calculation of the one-loop effective potential for L is discussed in SU(N) theories, both with and without fermions. A possible mechanism for the confining-deconfining transition in terms of the formation of ''Z(N) bubbles'' is discussed. For SU(2) theories, the Z(2) bubbles are simply finite-temperaturemore »« less

Some phenomenological aspects of the SU(2) sub q times SU(2) sub l times U(1) sub Y model

Journal Article Barger, V ; Rizzo, T - Physical Review, D (Particles Fields); (USA)

We examine the implications of the recently proposed un-unified SU(2){sub {ital q}}{times}SU(2){sub {ital l}}{times}U(1){sub {ital Y}} model for the extra-gauge-boson decay widths and hadronic production rates, the {ital e}{sup +}{ital e}{sup {minus}}{r arrow}{mu}{sup +}{mu}{sup {minus}} and {ital {bar p}p} asymmetries, the {ital B}-meson semileptonic branching fraction, {ital B}{sup 0}-{bar {ital B}} {sup 0} mixing, and the {ital CP}-violating parameter {epsilon}. A perturbative requirement gives the bound sin{phi}{approx gt}0.22 on the new mixing angle. Current searches at the Fermilab Tevatron collider for an extra {ital Z} boson can place a mass bound {ital M}{sub {ital Z}{sub {ital H}}}{approx gt}250 GeV. Themore »« less

Interface tension in SU(3) lattice gauge theory at finite temperatures on an [ital N][sub [ital t]]=2 lattice

Journal Article Aoki, Y ; Kanaya, K - Physical Review, D (Particles Fields); (United States)

The surface tension [sigma] of the confined-deconfined interface is calculated in pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory at finite temperatures employing the operator and integral methods on a lattice of a size 8[sup 2][times][ital N][sub [ital z]][times]2 with [ital N][sub [ital z]]=16 and 40. A mild size dependence of 20% is observed for the integral method, while the operator results suffer from a severe size effect of a factor of 2 between the two lattice sizes. The problems of the operator method associated with nonperturbative corrections to asymmetry response functions are discussed.
