Study of the chiral behavior of [the chiral condensate] in quenched QCD

Abstract

The QCD phase transition is studied on 323x8 quenched lattices. One expects from simple arguments that the quenched chiral condensate should diverge as the chiral limit is approached. Previous studies have not been able to observe this behavior, perhaps due to relatively large lattice spacings used. The topic is revisited here on Nt=8 lattices, where the physical spacing is approximately 2(Gev-1).
