Lattice Results for the QCD Phase Transition

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2011-08-04 v1

Abstract

We discuss recent results for the phase transition in finite-temperature QCD from numerical (Monte Carlo) simulations of the lattice-regularized theory. Emphasis is given to the case of two degenerate light-quark flavors. The order of the transition in this case, which could have cosmological implications, has not yet been established.
