The Interface Tension in Quenched QCD at the Critical Temperature

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We present results for the confinement-deconfinement interface tension αcd\alpha_{cd} of quenched QCD. They were obtained by applying Binder's histogram method to lattices of size L2×Lz×LtL^2\times L_z\times L_t for Lt=2L_t=2 and L=8,10,12\mboxand14L=8,10,12\mbox{ and }14 with Lz=30L_z=30 for L=8L=8 and Lz=3LL_z=3L otherwise. The use of a multicanonical algorithm and cylindrical geometries have turned out to be crucial for the numerical studies.
