Chiral symmetry breaking, phase structure and thermodynamics of QCD with mesonic degrees of freedom — •Mario Mitter — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Heidelberg

In the non-perturbative regime of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) mesons are important degrees of freedom. They can be introduced in a description of QCD, e.g. via the dynamical hadronization technique where mesonic operators are used to bosonize certain quark interactions. The phase structure of QCD and effects of axial U(1)-symmetry violation are investigated in a description utilizing mesonic degrees of freedom. The thermodynamics close to the chiral transition are compared to corresponding results from lattice QCD.
