Across the finite temperature transition to the quark-gluon plasma, the QCD topological susceptibility decreases sharply. Thus in the high temperature phase the remaining topological objects (possibly calorons) form a weakly interacting…

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at finite density is most often formulated on the lattice as a grand canonical ensemble. Since lattice QCD has a complex action problem at finite baryo-chemical potential ($\mu_B$), its results at finite density…
