Classical QGP : III. The free energy
Abstract
We explore further the classical QGP using methods from classical liquids. The partition function of an ensemble of SU(Nc) colored charge spheres is constructed. We analyze it using a cumulant expansion (low density) and a loop expansion (high temperature) after resumming the Debye screening effects. The pertinent free energies are derived in both limits and compared to recent molecular dynamics results.
