QCD at Finite Temperature and Baryon Number Density

  • Chapter
Lattice Gauge Theory

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 140))

Abstract

We discuss the status of Monte Carlo simulations for the thermodynamics of QCD. Recent results for pure SU(N) gauge theories at finite temperature and the influence of dynamical fermions on the phase structure at finite temperature as well as problems related to the introduction of non-zero chemical potentials are analyzed.
