Nuclear Physics & RIKEN Theory Seminar

"Magnetic quasi-particle component in high temperature QCD"

Presented by Chris Korthals-Altes, Centre de Physique theorique

Friday, April 27, 2007, 2:00 pm — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

Traditionally the hot QCD plasma is thought of as a quark-gluon soup. However the soup is a lot spicier: lattice simulations in quarkless gluodynamics show there must be a colour magnetic component. A hoist of data is within 1 to 2 % consistent with an octet of coloured monopoles. They are dilute, the diluteness given by the empirically small ratio of string tension to the mass gap. They are subject to a chemical potential, and can Bose-condense below some critical temperature.
