The nature of QCD phase transition is studied with massless up and down quarks and a light strange quark, using the Wilson formalism for quarks on a lattice with the temporal direction extensionNt=4. We find that the phase transition is of first order for the physical strange quark mass.

The QCD Vacuum as an Instanton Liquid

We review recent progress in understanding the importance of instanton effects in QCD. Instantons provide a mechanism for quark and gluon condensation, explain the U(1)A anomaly and the appearance of…

Peaks above the Harrison-Zel’dovich Spectrum Due to the QCD Transition

The transition from the quark-gluon plasma to a hadrons gas in the early universe affects the evolution of primordial cosmological perturbations. If the phase transition is first order, the sound…

Lattice investigations of the QCD phase diagram

To understand the physics in the early universe as well as in heavy ion collisions a throughout understanding of the theory of strong interaction, quantum chromodynamics (QCD), is important. Lattice…

Phase Transitions in the Early and Present Universe

Gravitational Waves from the Cosmological Quark-Hadron Phase Transition Revisited

The recent claim by the NANOGrav collaboration of a possible detection of an isotropic gravitational wave background stimulated a series of investigations searching for the origin of such a signal.…

Gravitational waves as cosmological probes for new physics between the electroweak and the grand-unification scale

Quark confinement and number of flavors in strong coupling lattice QCD.

It is shown that even in the strong coupling limit, when the number of flavors exceeds 7, quarks are not confined and chiral symmetry is not spontaneously broken for light quarks.

On the existence of a phase transition for QCD with three light quarks.

It is shown that for two degenerate flavors no finite-temperature phase transition is found for quark masses of {ital ma}=0.01 and 0.025, calling into question the existence of a QCD phase transition.
