We determine the second order endpoint of the line of first order phase transitions, which occur in the light quark mass regime of 3-flavour QCD at finite temperature, and analyze universal properties of this chiral critical point. A…
Within the proper-time renormalization group approach, the chiral phase diagram of a two-flavor quark-meson model is studied. In the chiral limit, the location of the tricritical point which is linked to a Gaussian fixed point, is…
We investigate the possible restoration of chiral and axial symmetries across the phase transition at finite temperature and chemical potential, by analyzing the behavior of several physics quantities, such as the quark condensates and the…
In this work, we analyze (using a chiral effective Lagrangian model) the scalar and pseudoscalar meson mass spectrum of QCD at finite temperature, above the chiral transition at $T_c$, in the realistic case with $N_f = 2 + 1$ light quark…
We determine the second order endpoint of the line of first order phase transitions, which occur in the light quark mass regime of 3-flavour QCD at finite temperature, and analyze universal properties of this chiral critical point. A…
In preparation of lattice studies of the two-color QCD phase diagram we study chiral restoration and deconfinement at finite temperature with two flavors of staggered quarks using an RHMC algorithm on GPUs. We first study unquenching…
We study flavor mixing and the axial anomaly in QCD at zero and finite temperature. Using the instanton liquid model, we show that the strength of the anomaly is essentially unchanged near the critical temperature for chiral symmetry…
We describe the chiral transition for the quark condensate and the melting of scalar and vector mesons in two-flavor holographic QCD. This is done by extending the improved holographic soft wall models proposed in [1] to finite temperature,…
The thermal restoration of chiral symmetry in QCD is known to proceed by an analytic crossover, which is widely expected to turn into a phase transition with a critical endpoint as the baryon density is increased. In the absence of a…
We present a lattice QCD based determination of the chiral phase transition temperature in QCD with two massless (up and down) and one strange quark having its physical mass. We propose and calculate two novel estimators for the chiral…
We consider the quark-meson model with two quark flavors in a constant external magnetic field $B$ at finite temperature $T$ and finite baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$. We calculate the full renormalized effective potential to one-loop…
We calculate the meson correlators in the $\epsilon$-regime of two-flavor QCD. On a $16^3\times 32$ lattice with $a\sim 0.11$ fm, the lattice simulations are performed with the dynamical overlap fermions. We reduce the sea quark mass down…
The mass dependence of the chiral phase transition is studied in the linear $SU(3)\times SU(3)$ sigma-model to leading order in a $1/N_f$-expansion, $N_f$ denoting the number of flavours. For realistic meson masses we find a smooth…
Recent developments in the evaluation of vector-meson spectral functions in hot and dense matter are discussed with emphasis on connections to the chiral phase transition in QCD. Model independent approaches including chiral low-density…
The $U(1)_A$ symmetry of the massless QCD Lagrangian is explicitly broken by the axial anomaly, but it may be effectively restored at finite temperature. Determining the temperature at which this occurs is important for understanding the…
We report on the first lattice calculation of the QCD phase transition using chiral fermions at physical values of the quark masses. This calculation uses 2+1 quark flavors, spatial volumes between (4 fm$)^3$ and (11 fm$)^3$ and…
In order to quantify the universal properties of the chiral phase transition in (2+1)-flavor QCD, we make use of an improved, renormalized order parameter for chiral symmetry breaking which is obtained as a suitable difference of the…
We study the hadron properties at finite temperature from measurement of the screening masses, using two-flavor full QCD of the hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm with the renormalization group improved Iwasaki gauge action and the clover…
We discuss the interplay between chiral and center sector phase transitions that occur in QCD with an imaginary quark chemical potential $\mu=i(2n+1) \pi T/3$. Based on a finite size scaling analysis in (2+1)-flavor QCD using HISQ fermions…
We calculate mesonic two-point functions in the epsilon-regime of two-flavor QCD on the lattice with exact chiral symmetry. We use gauge configurations of size 16^3 32 at the lattice spacing a \sim 0.11 fm generated with dynamical overlap…
