1 DeTar, CarletonQuenched hadron spectroscopy with improved staggered quark actionWe investigate light hadron spectroscopy with an improved quenched staggered quark action. We compare the results obtained with an improved gauge plus an improved quark action, an improved gauge plus standard quark action, and the standard gauge plus standard quark action. Most of the improvement ...Staggered quarks; Chiral symmetry; Flavor symmetry1998-07
2 DeTar, CarletonQCD thermodynamics with two flavors at Nt=6The first results of numerical simulations of quantum chromodynamics on the Intel iPSC/860 parallel processor are presented. We performed calculations with two flavors of Kogut-Susskind quarks at Nt = 6 with masses of 0.15T and 0.075T (0.025 and 0.0125 in lattice units) in order to locate the crosso...Kogut-Susskind quarks; Crossover temperature; Chiral symmetry; Polyakov loop; Phase transitions1992-05
3 DeTar, CarletonQuark-bag model with low-energy pion interactions. II. ApplicationThe hybrid pion-quark-bag model discussed in I is applied to a calculation of masses, pion couplings, and other parameters of various light hadrons in an effort to determine the extent to which the bag parameters must be modified in the presence of pion interactions. Corrections for the finite spr...Bag models; Quark bag; Chiral symmetry; Pion field; Nucleons1981-08

5 DeTar, CarletonEquation of state for two flavor QCD at Nt=6We calculate the two flavor equation of state for QCD on lattices with lattice spacing a=(6T)21 and find that cutoff effects are substantially reduced compared to an earlier study using a=(4T)21. However, it is likely that significant cutoff effects remain. We fit the lattice data to expected forms ...Phase transitions; Quark-gluon plasma; Chiral symmetry1997-06

10 DeTar, CarletonQuark-bag model with low-energy pion interactions. I. TheoryA standard method for restoring chiral symmetry in the bag model is to introduce an explicit external pion field. Questions of the consistency and compatibility of this method with the assumptions of the static-cavity approximation of the bag model are discussed. An approximate version of the mode...Bag models; Quark bag; Chiral symmetry; Pion bag; Pion field1981-08

15 DeTar, CarletonWhich chiral symmetry is restored in high temperature quantum chromodynamics?Sigma models for the high temperature phase transition in quantum chromodynamics suggest that at high temperature the SU(Nf) X 3 SU(Nf) chiral symmetry becomes exact, but the anomalous axial U(1) symmetry need not be restored.

16 DeTar, CarletonPhenomenological lattice model of the high-temperature phase transition in quantum chromodynamicsWe 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.
