New results on gauge field decomposition in SU(3) gluodynamics

We study decomposition of the nonabelian gauge field into the Abelian component created by Abelian monopoles and the modified nonabelian components with monopoles removed after fixing the Maximal Abelian gauge in SU(3) lattice gluodynamics. We compute the static potential V (r) for the original gauge field and for its components V_mon and V_mod at two values of the lattice spacing. We confirm that with optimal gauge fixing the sum V_mon + V_mod deviates substantially from V(r). We show that this decomposition of the static potential is satisfied with good precision at all distances when we use another set of Gribov copies.

Abelian and monopole dominance in SU(3) gluodynamics and Gribov copy effects

We continue our study of the Gribov copies effrcts in the Maximal Abelian gauge in lattice $SU(3)$ gluodynamics. Our computations were completed for four values of the lattice spacing with physical lattice size $L \approx 2$ fm. It is demonstrated that when one uses the effective simulated annealing algorithm to fix the gauge the obtained Gribov copies produce low abelian string tension which is below 90% of the physical value independent of the lattice spacing. These Gribov copies produce also low value (about 86%) for the monopole string tension. It is further shown that in case of less effective relaxation algorithm it is possible to obtain Gribov copies which produce both Abelian and monopole string tension in good agreement with the physical one.

Decomposition of the static potential in the Maximal Abelian gauge

Decomposition of SU(2) gauge field into the monopole and monopoleless components is studied in the Maximal Abelian gauge using Monte-Carlo simulations in lattice SU(2) gluodynamics as well as in two-color QCD with both zero and nonzero quark chemical potential. The interaction potential between static charges is calculated for each component and their sum is compared with the non-Abelian static potential. A good agreement is found in the confinement phase. Implications of this result are discussed.

New way of collision experiment data analysis based on Grand Canonical Distribution and Lattice QCD data

We propose new way of heavy ion collisions experiment data analysis. We analyze physical parameters of fireball created in RHIC experiment based on Grand Canonical Distribution and different Lattice QCD data available at the moment. Our results on chemical potential are in agreement with previous model estimations and do not depend on Lattice setup. At same time, we found possible T(V) states of fireball and estimated the most probable temperature and volume of fireball as function of collision energy. We conclude that hadrom matter at RHIC experiment is thermalized and described by Grand Canonical Distribution.

Sign problem in finite density lattice QCD

The canonical approach, which was developed for solving the sign problem, may suffer from a new type of sign problem. In the canonical approach, the grand partition function is written as a fugacity expansion: $Z_G(μ,T) = \sum_n Z_C(n,T) ξ^n$, where $ξ=\exp(μ/T)$ is the fugacity, and $Z_C(n,T)$ are given as averages over a Monte Carlo update, $\langle z_n\rangle$. We show that the complex phase of $z_n$ is proportional to $n$ at each Monte Carlo step. Although $\langle z_n\rangle$ take real positive values, the values of $z_n$ fluctuate rapidly when $n$ is large, especially in the confinement phase, which gives a limit on $n$. We discuss possible remedies for this problem.

Landau gauge gluon and ghost propagators at finite temperature from quenched lattice QCD

The behavior of the Landau gauge gluon and ghost propagators is studied in pure SU(3) gauge theory at non-zero temperature on the lattice. We concentrate on the momentum range [0.6, 2.0] GeV. For the longitudinal as well as for the transverse component of the gluon propagator we extract the continuum limit. We demonstrate the smallness of finite-size and Gribov-copy effects at temperatures close to the deconfinement phase transition at T=T_c and within the restricted range of momenta. Since the longitudinal component D_L(q) turns out to be most sensitive with respect to the phase transition we propose some combinations of D_L(q) signalling the transition much like "order parameters".

Flavour blindness and patterns of flavour symmetry breaking in lattice simulations of up, down and strange quarks

QCD lattice simulations with 2+1 flavours (when two quark flavours are mass degenerate) typically start at rather large up-down and strange quark masses and extrapolate first the strange quark mass and then the up-down quark mass to its respective physical value. Here we discuss an alternative method of tuning the quark masses, in which the singlet quark mass is kept fixed. Using group theory the possible quark mass polynomials for a Taylor expansion about the flavour symmetric line are found, first for the general 1+1+1 flavour case and then for the 2+1 flavour case. This ensures that the kaon always has mass less than the physical kaon mass. This method of tuning quark masses then enables highly constrained polynomial fits to be used in the extrapolation of hadron masses to their physical values. Numerical results for the 2+1 flavour case confirm the usefulness of this expansion and an extrapolation to the physical pion mass gives hadron mass values to within a few percent of their experimental values. Singlet quantities remain constant which allows the lattice spacing to be determined from hadron masses (without necessarily being at the physical point). Furthermore an extension of this programme to include partially quenched results is given.

Flavour symmetry breaking and tuning the strange quark mass for 2+1 quark flavours

QCD lattice simulations with 2+1 flavours typically start at rather large up-down and strange quark masses and extrapolate first the strange quark mass to its physical value and then the up-down quark mass.

Numerical results confirm the usefulness of this expansion and an extrapolation to the physical pion mass gives hadron mass values to within a few percent of their experimental values.

Tuning the strange quark mass in lattice simulations

QCD lattice simulations with 2+1 flavours typically start at rather large up-down and strange quark masses and extrapolate first the strange quark mass to its physical value and then the up-down quark mass. An alternative method of tuning the quark masses is discussed here in which the singlet quark mass is kept fixed, which ensures that the kaon always has mass less than the physical kaon mass. It can also take into account the different renormalisations (for singlet and non-singlet quark masses) occurring for non-chirally invariant lattice fermions and so allows a smooth extrapolation to the physical quark masses. This procedure enables a wide range of quark masses to be probed, including the case with a heavy up-down quark mass and light strange quark mass. Results show the correct order for the baryon octet and decuplet spectrum and an extrapolation to the physical pion mass gives mass values to within a few percent of their experimental values.

Results from 2+1 flavours of SLiNC fermions

QCD results are presented for a 2+1 flavour fermion clover action (which we call the SLiNC action). A method of tuning the quark masses to their physical values is discussed. In this method the singlet quark mass is kept fixed, which solves the problem of different renormalisations (for singlet and non-singlet quark masses) occuring for non-chirally invariant lattice fermions. This procedure enables a wide range of quark masses to be probed, including the case with a heavy up-down quark mass and light strange quark mass. Preliminary results show the correct splittings for the baryon (octet and) decuplet spectrum.

Structure of the baryonic flux tube in N_{f}=2 lattice QCD at finite temperature

We study the flux tube profile in the baryonic system in full QCD at finite temperature on $N_{t}=8$ lattice. We fix the maximally Abelian gauge and measure the monopole and the photon parts of the Abelian action density, the color electric field and the monopole current on both sides of the finite temperature transition. We demonstrate the disappearance of the flux tube in the high temperature phase.

Finite temperature phase transition in full QCD with $N_f=2$ flavors of clover fermions at $N_t=8$ and 10

We present results for QCD with $N_f=2$ flavors of dynamical quarks using nonperturbatively improved Wilson fermions at finite temperature on $16^3 \times 8$ and $24^3 \times 10$ lattices. We determine the transition temperature in the range of quark masses $0.6 \lesssim m_π/m_ρ\leq 0.8$. After fixing the Maximal Abelian gauge we investigate the contribution of Abelian monopoles to the Polyakov loop, Polyakov loop susceptibility and confirm Abelian and monopole dominance in full QCD.

Heavy quark potential in lattice QCD at finite temperature

Results of the study of lattice QCD with two flavors of nonperturbatively improved Wilson fermions at finite temperature are presented. The transition temperature for m_π/m_ρ \sim 0.8 and lattice spacing a \sim 0.12 fm is determined. A two-exponent ansatz is successfully applied to describe the heavy quark potential in the confinement phase.

Flux Tubes of Two- and Three-Quark System in Full QCD

We study the abelian color flux of two- and three-quark systems in the maximally abelian gauge in lattice QCD with dynamical fermions. We find that the abelian flux tube formed between quark and antiquark is very much the same as in quenched QCD up to quark separations of $R$$\sim$ 2fm. The profile of the color electric field in three-quark system suggests $Y$ ansatz, which might be interpreted as the result of the vacuum pressure in the confined phase. In order to clarify the flux structure, we investigate the color electric field of the three-quark system splittting the abelian gauge field into the monopole and photon parts.

The flux distribution of the three quark system in SU(3)

We study the abelian color-flux distribution of the three quark system in the maximally abelian gauge on SU(3) lattices. The distribution of the color electric field suggests $Y Ansatz$, which might be interpreted through the dual superconductor picture as the result of the vacuum pressure in the confined phase. In order to clarify the flux structure, we investigate the color electric field in the three quark system also in the monopole part and in the photon part.

The profile of the broken string in the confined and deconfined phase in full QCD

We study the profile of the broken string (flux tube) in the maximally abelian gauge below and above the finite temperature phase transition in full QCD. In the deconfinement phase, the flux tube disappears and the electric field apperas to be Coulomb-like. In the confinement phase, but near $T_c$, at shorter distances a flux tube is formed like at zero temperature, while at larger distances the tube disappears similar to the deconfinement phase.

Thermodynamics and heavy quark potential in N_f=2 dynamical QCD

We study N_f=2 lattice QCD with nonperturbatively improved Wilson fermions at finite temperature on 16^3 \cdot 8 lattices. We determine the transition temperature at m_π/m_ρ \sim 0.8 and lattice spacing as small as 0.12fm. The string breaking at T < T_c is also studied. We find that the static potential can be fitted by a simple expression involving string model potential at finite temperature.
