QCD thermodynamics with dynamical overlap fermions

We study QCD thermodynamics using two flavors of dynamical overlap fermions with quark masses corresponding to a pion mass of 350 MeV. We determine several observables on Nt=6 and 8 lattices. All our runs are performed with fixed global topology. Our results are compared with staggered ones and a ni...

Summary:We study QCD thermodynamics using two flavors of dynamical overlap fermions with quark masses corresponding to a pion mass of 350 MeV. We determine several observables on Nt=6 and 8 lattices. All our runs are performed with fixed global topology. Our results are compared with staggered ones and a nice agreement is found.
