Renormalized Polyakov loops in various representations in finite temperature SU(2) gauge theory

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2010-01-21 v1

Abstract

We present results for the renormalized Polyakov loop in the three lowest irreducible representations of SU(2) gauge theory at finite temperature. We will discuss their scaling behavior near TcT_c and test Casimir scaling in the deconfined phase. Moreover, we will compare these results to calculations for the renormalized Polyakov loops in several representations in the SU(3) gauge theory.
