Scale for the phase diagram of quantum chromodynamics.
Matter described by quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interactions, may undergo phase transitions when its temperature and the chemical potentials are varied. QCD at finite temperature is studied in the laboratory by colliding heavy ions at varying beam energies. We present a test of QCD in the nonperturbative domain through a comparison of thermodynamic fluctuations predicted ...
متن کاملHeavy-quark Physics in Quantum Chromodynamics’
Heavy quarks can expose new symmetries and novel phenomena in QCD not apparent in ordinary hadronic systems. In these lectures I discuss the use of effective-Lagrangian and light-cone Fock methods to analyze exclusive heavy hadron decays such as Y + pp and B + XT, and also to derive effective SchrGdinger and Dirac equations for heavy quark systems. Two contributions to the heavy quark structure...
متن کاملQuark Confinement Physics from Quantum Chromodynamics
We show the construction of the dual superconducting theory for the confinement mechanism from QCD in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge using the lattice QCDMonte Carlo simulation. We find that essence of infrared abelian dominance is naturally understood with the off-diagonal gluon mass moff ≃ 1.2GeV induced by the MA gauge fixing. In the MA gauge, the off-diagonal gluon amplitude is forced to ...
متن کاملSpherical quantum chromodynamics of heavy-quark systems.
We propose a model for Quantum Chromodynamics, obtained by ignoring the angular dependence of the gluon fields, which could qualitatively describe systems containing one heavy quark. This leads to a two dimensional gauge theory which has chiral symmetry and heavy quark symmetry. We show that in a light cone formalism, the Hamiltonian of this spherical QCD can be expressed entirely in terms of c...
متن کاملPhase Transitions in Quantum Chromodynamics
The current understanding of finite temperature phase transitions in QCD is reviewed. A critical discussion of refined phase transition criteria in numerical lattice simulations and of analytical tools going beyond the mean-field level in effective continuum models for QCD is presented. Theoretical predictions about the order of the transitions are compared with possible experimental manifestat...
