SU(2) finite temperature phase transition and Michael sum rules

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

We studied the finite temperature phase transition of SU(2) gauge theory on four-dimensional Euclidean lattices by Monte Carlo simulations, and measured the flux distributions of a qqˉq\bar q pair in both confined and unconfined phases. We reviewed and generalized Michael sum rules to include finite temperature effects. To compare our flux data with predictions of Michael sum rules, we studied the behavior of string tension with temperature. Our data agree well with the generalized sum rules.
