Self-consistent approximations allowing the calculation of the entropy and the baryon density of a quark-gluon plasma are presented. These approximations incorporate the essential physics of the hard thermal loops, involve only…
Self-consistent approximations in terms of fully dressed propagators provide a simple expression for the entropy of an ultrarelativistic plasma, which isolates the contribution of the elementary excitations as a leading contribution.…
We review the various methods which have been employed recently to describe the thermodynamics of the high temperature quark-gluon plasma using weak coupling techniques, and we compare their results with those of most recent lattice gauge…
We discuss a recent approach for overcoming the poor convergence of the perturbative expansion for the thermodynamic potential of QCD. This approach is based on self-consistent approximations which allow for a gauge-invariant and manifestly…
We compute analytically the diagonal quark number susceptibilities for a quark-gluon plasma at finite temperature and zero chemical potential, and compare with recent lattice results. The calculation uses the approximately self-consistent…
I discuss lattice QCD calculations of the properties of strongly interacting matter at finite temperature, including the determination of the transition temperature Tc, equation of state, different static screening lengths and quarkonium…
We calculate the thermal rate of real-photon production in the quark-gluon plasma at a temperature of $T=254$ MeV using lattice QCD. The calculation is based on the difference between the spatially transverse and longitudinal parts of the…
We propose a gauge-invariant and manifestly UV finite resummation of the physics of hard thermal/dense loops (HTL/HDL) in the thermodynamics of the quark-gluon plasma. The starting point is a simple, effectively one-loop expression for the…
We present a computation of the photon emission rate of the quark-gluon plasma from two-flavor lattice QCD at a temperature of 254 MeV, which follows up on the work presented in [1]. We perform a continuum extrapolation of the…
These lectures are an introduction to recent developments in the study of the high temperature phase of QCD by using weak coupling techniques. After a brief introduction to some techniques of quantum field theory at finite temperature, I…
We have attempted to build first some simplified model to map the interaction of quarks and gluons, which can be contained by their thermodynamical quantity like entropy density, obtained from calculation of lattice quantum chromo dynamics…
A discussion on the electrical conductivity of the quark-gluon plasma as determined by lattice QCD is given. After a reminder of basic definitions and expectations, various methods for spectral reconstruction are reviewed, including the use…
We calculate the three-loop thermodynamic potential of QCD at finite temperature and chemical potential(s) using the hard-thermal-loop perturbation theory (HTLpt) reorganization of finite temperature and density QCD. The resulting analytic…
Numerical simulations of quantum chromodynamics at nonzero temperature provide information from first principles about the physical properties of the quark gluon plasma. Because the lattice approximation can be refined indefinitely, results…
In this work, we study the thermodynamic properties of quark-gluon plasma using Kramer's $q-potential$ method. We propose a modification in the first law of thermodynamics by including a temperature-dependent term when single particle…
We calculate the free energy, entropy and pressure of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) at finite temperature and density with a given fraction of spin-up and spin-down quarks using a MIT bag model with corrections up to ${\cal O} (g^4 \ln…
Here we present a self-consistent quasi-particle model for quark-gluon plasma and apply it to explain the non-ideal behaviour seen in lattice simulations. The basic idea, borrowed from electrodynamic plasma, is that the gluons acquire mass…
I review recent developements in lattice QCD at finite temperature, including the determination of the transition temperature T_c, equation of state and diffenet static screening lengths. The lattice data suggest that at temperatures above…
We argue that the phenomenologically inferred ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density of the quark-gluon plasma, $\eta/\s < 0.5$ near the deconfinement temperature $T_c$, can be understood from perturbative QCD. To rebut the widespread,…
I describe how lattice computations are being used to extract experimentally relevant features of the quark gluon plasma. I deal specifically with relaxation times, photon emissivity, strangeness yields, event by event fluctuations of…
