We present lattice QCD results for mesonic screening masses in the temperature range 140 MeV $\lesssim T \lesssim$ 2500 MeV. Our calculations were carried out using (2+1)-flavors of the Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action, with a…
We suggest a physical definition of the confinement mass scale in QCD in the framework of non-perturbative, gauge invariant QCD, where all possible gluons exchanged between any pair of quark lines are included; and we insist that a stable,…
Confined and deconfined phases are defined through nonperturbative correlators and nonperturbative background perturbation theory is used to compute the critical temperature $T_c$ and spatial string tension. Taking evolution along one of…
We consider SU(N) QCD_{1+1} coupled to massless adjoint Majorana fermions, where N is finite but arbitrary. We examine the spectrum for various values of N, paying particular attention to the formation of multi-particle states, which were…
We study the spectrum of 1+1 dimensional large $N$ QCD coupled to an adjoint Majorana fermion of mass $m$. As $m\to 0$ this model makes a transition from confinement to screening. We argue that in this limit the spectrum becomes continuous…
The formalism of reduced quantum electrodynamics is generalized to the case of heterostructures composed of few atomically thick layers and the corresponding effective (2+1)-dimensional gauge theory is formulated. This dimensionally reduced…
We present results on the thermodynamic and continuum limit of meson screening masses in the deconfined phase, using standard staggered and non-perturbatively clover-improved Wilson fermions in the quenched approximation with light quark…
We study SU(2) lattice gauge theory with two flavors of Wilson fermion at non-zero chemical potential mu and low temperature on a 8^3x16 system. We identify three regimes along the mu-axis. For mu<~m_pi/2 the system remains in the vacuum…
Screening masses in the equilibrium thermodynamics of gauge theories were measured. The spectroscopy of these screening masses gives strong evidence for dimensional reduction at $T\ge2T_c$. A perturbative explanation of these masses is…
While the QCD Lagrangian as the whole is only chirally symmetric, its electric part has larger chiral-spin SU(2)_{CS} and SU(2N_F) symmetries. This allows separation of the electric and magnetic interactions in a given reference frame.…
Various definitions for the QCD Debye mass and its evaluation are reviewed in a non-perturabtive framework for the study of screening of general static sources. While it is possible to perturbatively integrate over scales $\sim T$ and thus…
We compute flavor non-singlet meson screening masses in the chiral limit of QCD with $N_f=3$ quarks. The calculation is carried out at 12 temperatures from $T\approx 1$ GeV up to the electroweak scale. For each temperature we simulated…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with a general number of colors, $\Nc$, provides a powerful theoretical laboratory to explore the dynamics of non-Abelian gauge theories. Although $\Nc =3$ does not look a large number, the $1/\Nc$ expansion…
We provide further evidence for the screening behavior of massless SU(N_c) bosonized QCD by (i) computing the potential between external quarks, (ii) bosonizing also the external sources and analyzing the states of the combined system and…
Quantum electrodynamics in three spacetime dimensions, with one massless fermion species, is studied using a non-perturbative variational approach. Quantization of the theory follows Dirac's Hamiltonian procedure, with a gauge invariant…
We study $2d$ QCD coupled to fermions in the adjoint representation of the gauge group $SU(N)$ at large $N$, and its relation to string theory. It is shown that the model undergoes a deconfinement transition at a finite temperature…
According to the present understanding, the observed diversity of the strong interaction phenomena is described by Quantum Chromodynamics, a gauge field theory with only very few parameters. One of the fundamental questions in this context…
External electromagnetic fields provide a useful probe of QCD matter, but real electric fields are hindered by the sign problem, motivating studies with imaginary electric fields. We investigate mesonic screening correlators in lattice QCD…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interactions, in principle describes the interaction of quark and gluon fields. However, due to the self-coupling of the gluons, quarks and gluons are confined into hadrons and cannot exist…
We analyze the question of screening versus confinement in bosonized massless QCD in two dimensions. We deduce the screening behavior of massless $SU(N_c)$ QCD with flavored fundamental fermions and fermions in the adjoint representation.…
