To quantify the universal properties of chiral phase transition in (2+1)-flavor QCD, we use an improved, renormalized order parameter for the chiral symmetry breaking. We construct ratios of this divergence-free order parameter from its values for different pairs of light quark masses. From this, we determine in a parameter-independent manner, the chiral phase transition temperature \(T_c\) and the associated critical exponent \(\delta \)  of the universality class. We present first numerical results of these calculations on \(N_\tau =8\) lattices, with staggered fermions.

摘要

To quantify the universal properties of chiral phase transition in (2+1)-flavor QCD, we use an improved, renormalized order parameter for the chiral symmetry breaking. We construct ratios of this divergence-free order parameter from its values for different pairs of light quark masses. From this, we determine in a parameter-independent manner, the chiral phase transition temperature \(T_c\) and the associated critical exponent \(\delta \)  of the universality class. We present first numerical results of these calculations on \(N_\tau =8\) lattices, with staggered fermions.
