Fluctuations and the Phase Transition in a Chiral Model with Polyakov Loops

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We explore the NJL model with Polyakov loops for a system of three colors and two flavors within the mean-field approximation, where both chiral symmetry and confinement are taken into account. We focus on the phase structure of the model and study the chiral and Polyakov loop susceptibilities.
