High-Temperature Thermodynamics of QCD
Abstract
Effective-field-theory methods are used to study the high T limit of QCD. These methods unravel the contributions to the free energy of QCD at high temperature from the scales T, gT, and g2 T. The free energy is explicitly computed to order g5. Implications for the application of perturbative QCD to the quark-gluon plasma are also discussed.
