String tension at finite temperature Lattice QCD

The critical curve of string tension as a function of the temperature is computed in SU(3) Lattice QCD. We present the results for the string tension utilizing a pair of Polyakov loop and antiloop, with two different techniques. We compare the colour averaged loop-antiloop which is gauge invariant but is only adequate to study the string tension, and the colour singlet loop-antiloop using the Landau gauge fixing which also enables to compute the coulomb part of the free energy.

From Running Gluon Mass to Chiral Symmetry Breaking

The gluon propagator is one of the fundamental Green's functions of QCD. It is an essential ingredient in, for example, the modeling of the Schwinger-Dyson equation used to describe hadronic phenomenology. From the Landau gauge gluon propagator, computed with lattice QCD methods, we discuss its interpretation as a massive propagator and measure the gluon mass as a function of the momenta. Special attention is given to the mass at infrared scales. In the last part of the talk, the gluon mass and chiral symmetry breaking are related via an effective model for QCD.

Lattice QCD and Three-Body Exotic Systems in the static limit

The static potentials for quark-antiquark-gluon and 3-gluon systems are computed with lattice QCD methods. For the quark-antiquark-gluon hybrid meson the static potential is obtained for different values of the angle between the quark-gluon and antiquark-gluon segments. The simulations support the formation of an adjoint string for small angles, while for large angles, the adjoint string is replaced by two fundamental strings connecting the gluon and the quarks. For the 3-gluon glueball, we discuss the corresponding Wilson loops and show that the gluons are connected by fundamental strings when the gluons are far apart.

Static potential for the quark-antiquark-gluon hybrid system in lattice QCD

The static gluon-quark-antiquark interaction is investigated using lattice QCD techniques. A Wilson loop adequate to the static hybrid three-body system is developed and, using a $24^3 \times 48$ periodic lattice with $β= 6.2$, the potential energy of the system is measured for different geometries. For the medium range behaviour, when the quarks are far apart, we find a string tension which is compatible with two fundamental strings. On the other hand, when the quark and antiquark are nearby, the string tension is larger than two fundamental strings and is compatible with the Casimir scaling.
