Z(3)-symmetric effective theory of hot QCD

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-04-14 v1

Abstract

We study a three dimensional Z(3)-symmetric effective theory of high temperature QCD. The exact lattice-continuum relations, needed in order to perform lattice simulations with physical parameters, are computed to order O(a^0) in lattice perturbation theory. Lattice simulations are performed to determine the phase structure of a subset of the parameter space.
