We review results from lattice QCD calculations on the thermodynamics of strong-interaction
matter with emphasis on input these calculations can provide to the exploration of the phase …

We review the theoretical developments and conceptual advances that stemmed from the
generalization of QCD to the limit of a large number of color charges, originally proposed by't …

Heavy ion collision experiments recreating the quark-gluon plasma that filled the nascent
universe have established that it is a nearly perfect liquid that flows with such minimal …

With the physical Higgs mass the standard model symmetry restoration phase transition is a
smooth cross-over. We study the thermodynamics of the cross-over using numerical lattice …

Shear viscosity is a measure of the amount of dissipation in a simple fluid. In kinetic theory
shear viscosity is related to the rate of momentum transport by quasi-particles, and the …

A bstract We present the equation of state (pressure, trace anomaly, energy density and
entropy density) of the SU (3) gauge theory from lattice field theory in an unprecedented …

A bstract Perturbation theory alone fails to describe thermodynamics of the electroweak
phase transition. We review a technique combining perturbative and non-perturbative …

The equilibrium thermodynamic properties of the SU (N) plasma are studied
nonperturbatively in the large-N limit, via high-precision lattice simulations at temperatures …

Gauge theories of the Yang–Mills type are the single most important building block of the
standard model of particle physics and beyond. They are an integral part of the strong and …

We present a first-principle computation of the jet quenching parameter, which describes the
momentum broadening of a high-energy parton moving through the deconfined state of …
