Abstract

The nature of the chiral phase transition in lattice QCD is studied for the cases of 2, 3 and 6 flavors with degenerate Wilson quarks, mainly on a lattice with the temporal direction extension $N_t=4$ . We find that the chiral phase transition is continuous for the case of 2 flavors, while it is of first order for 3 and 6 flavors.
