Abstract

We present a large-scale Monte Carlo calculation of the deconfining phasetransition temperature in lattice quantum chromodynamics without ferminons. Using the Wilson action, we find that the transition temperature as a function of the lattice coupling g is consistent with scaling behaviour dictated by the perturbative β-function for 6/g2 > 6.15.

A detailed treatment appeared in Phys. Rev. Lett. 55 (1985), 1958.

Presented by S. Meyer; work supported in part by DFG.
