Quark Density in Lattice QC$_2$D at Imaginary and Real Chemical Potential

We study lattice two-color QCD (QC$_2$D) with two flavors of staggered fermions at imaginary and real quark chemical potential $μ_q$ and $T>T_c$. We employ various methods of extrapolation of the quark number density from imaginary to real quark chemical potentials $μ_q$, including series expansions as well as analytic continuation based on phenomenological models, and study their accuracy by comparing the results to the lattice data. Below the Roberge-Weiss temperature, $T T_{RW}$ we show that the analytic continuation to the real values of $μ_q$ based on trigonometric functions works equally well with the conventional method based on the Taylor expansion in powers of $μ_q$.

Study of two color QCD on large lattices

We study two colors lattice QCD (QC$_2$D) with two flavors of staggered fermions on $40^4$ and $32^4$ lattices with lattice spacing $a =0.048$~fm in the wide range of the quark chemical potential $μ_q$. Our focus is on the confinement-deconfinement transition in this theory. Thus we compute the string tension from the Wilson loops and the static quark free energy from the Polyakov loops. We find that the deconfinement transition found earlier in the range $μ_q \approx 800 - 1000$ MeV is shifted to higher values. This shift is attributed to decreasing of the lattice spacing used in our simulations in comparison with the earlier study.
