DeTar, Carleton | Lattice quantum chromodynamics comes of age | The strength of the electron-photon interaction is characterized by the fine-structure constant α ≈ 1/137.036. Because α is small, quantum electrodynamics (QED), the theory of interacting electrons and photons, can be solved to very good approximation with the traditional technology of pencil an... | Quarks; Gluons; Mesons; CKM matrix | 2004 |

DeTar, Carleton | Pseudodeconfinement and dynamical confinement in the quark plasma | We elaborate upon phenomenological models of high-temperature hadronic matter at zero baryon density. We discuss the choice of a practical set of "fundamental" degrees of freedom, indicate their relationship to dynamically confined plasma modes, and suggest in what way they may account for the phase... | Quark plasma; Gluon plasma; Hadronic matter; Deconfinement; Glueballs; Mesons; Phase transitions | 1988-04 |
