Thermodynamics of a Bose field on a lattice with the SU(2) color group: effects of finite size

  • 1. Institute of Theoretical Physics, Ukrainian Academy of Sciences

Description

The effects of a finite lattice on the thermodynamics of a Yang-Mills field is estimated by considering the color degrees of freedom. A free Bose field with SU(2) color symmetry and only color singlets is considered. The correction resulting from the requirement of colorless states is obtained as a fraction of the Stefan-Boltzmann energy, for various numbers of sites of the lattice
