Vacuum energy of quarks participates in the pressure balance at the temperature transition T_c and defines the dependence of T_c on m_q. We first check this dependence in absence of magnetic fields eB vs known lattice data, and then take…
We simulate lattice QCD with an irrelevant chiral 4-fermion interaction which allows us to simulate at zero quark mass. This enables us to study the finite-temperature chiral-symmetry-restoring phase transition for 2 massless quark…
