Three-loop free energy for pure gauge QCD.
We compute the free energy density for pure non-Abelian gauge theory at high temperature and zero chemical potential. The three-loop result to O(g4) is F = dAT 4π 2 9 { − 5 + ( gA 4π )2 − 16 √ 3 ( gA 4π )3 −48 ( gA 4π )4 ln ( gA 2π √ 3 )
متن کاملTransport Coefficients in Hot Qcd
I give a physical explanation of what shear viscosity is, and what physics determines its value. Then I explain why determining the shear viscosity of the Quark-Gluon Plasma is interesting. I outline the leading-order calculation of the QGP shear viscosity (and baryon number diffusion constant), explaining why the quite complicated physics of parton splitting and Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal inter...
متن کاملObstructions to dimensional reduction in hot QCD
I describe results on screening masses in hot gauge theories. Wilsonian effective long distance theories called dimensionally reduced (DR) theories describe very well the longest screening length in pure gauge theories. In the presence of fermions, meson-like screening lengths dominate the long-distance physics for 3Tc/2 ≤ T < 3Tc, and thus obstruct perturbative DR. Extrapolation of our results...
متن کاملGauge/String Duality, Hot QCD and Heavy Ion Collisions
Over the last decade, both experimental and theoretical advances have brought the need for strong coupling techniques in the analysis of deconfined QCD matter and heavy ion collisions to the forefront. As a consequence, a fruitful interplay has developed between analyses of strongly-coupled non-abelian plasmas via the gauge/string duality (also referred to as the AdS/CFT correspondence) and the...
متن کاملVolume independence in large Nc QCD-like gauge theories
Volume independence in large Nc gauge theories may be viewed as a generalized orbifold equivalence. The reduction to zero volume (or Eguchi-Kawai reduction) is a special case of this equivalence. So is temperature independence in confining phases. A natural generalization concerns volume independence in “theory space” of quiver gauge theories. In pure Yang-Mills theory, the failure of volume in...
