![]() | DeTar, Carleton | Measuring the hadronic spectrum of the quark plasma | In an effort to characterize the large-scale structure and composition of the Q C D plasma at zero baryon-number density in the vicinity of the high-temperature phase transition, we have carried out a numerical simulation in SU(3) lattice gauge theory with four flavors of low-mass staggered fermions... | Quark plasma; Gluon plasma; Hadronic matter; Deconfinement; Chiral symmetry; Phase transitions | 1987-11 |

![]() | DeTar, Carleton | Phenomenological lattice model of the high-temperature phase transition in quantum chromodynamics | We propose a simple phenomenological lattice model for the high-temperature phase transition in a quark-gluon plasma, in which the elementary dynamical variables are Wilson lines and SU(iV) chiral spins. A mean-field analysis of the model shows a second-order chiral phase transition for N=2 and a fi... | Quark plasma; Gluon plasma; Chiral symmetry; Phase transitions | 1987-06 |

![]() | 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 |

![]() | DeTar, Carleton | Static screening lengths in the gluon plasma | We report results of an extensive numerical simulation in lattice gauge theory to study various static screening lengths in a finite-temperature pure gluon plasma. Measurements are made for fixed triplet charges (Wilson lines) and a variety of local operators near and above the phase transition for ... | Gluon plasma; Phase transitions; Deconfinement; Strange quarks | 1986-10 |

![]() | DeTar, Carleton | Thermodynamic properties of the gluon plasma | We calculate the energy density, pressure, and speed of sound in the deconfined phase of lattice SU(3) gauge theory at finite temperature for lattices of temporal size N,=4, 6, and 8. We compare our results with perturbative QCD at high temperature and with a simple phenomenological model. We also p... | Hadronic matter; Energy density; Gluon plasma; Phase transitions | 1987-01 |
