The heavy quark deconfinement transition from strong coupling series for the Potts model — •Linus Feldkamp — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, D-48149 Münster

The critical points of the 3-dimensional Z(3)-Potts model are in the same universality class as those of QCD with heavy quarks. It is therefore a useful model to investigate finite density effects on the deconfinement transition. This has recently been done in Monte Carlo simulations. Here we demonstrate the application of strong-coupling techniques as an alternative to obtain the critical parameters.
