The Three-Loop Free Energy for High-Temperature QED and QCD with Fermions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-09-01 v1

Abstract

We compute the free energy density for gauge theories, with fermions, at high temperature and zero chemical potential. Specifically, we analytically compute the free energy through O(g4)O(g^4), which requires the evaluation of three-loop diagrams. This computation extends our previous result for pure gauge QCD.
