Abstract

We summarise what lattice simulations have to say about the physical properties of continuum SU(N) gauge theories in 3+1 dimensions. The quantities covered are: the glueball mass spectrum, the confining string tension, the temperature at which the theory becomes deconfined, the topological susceptibility, the value of the scale LambdaMS-bar that governs the rate at which the coupling runs and the r0 parameter that characterises the static quark potential at intermediate distances.
