Two Phases

Landau gauge gluon propagators are studied numerically in the SU (3) gluodynamics as well as in the full QCD with the number of flavors nF = 2 using efficient gauge fixing technique. We compare these propagators at temperatures very close to the transition point in two phases: confinement and deconfinement. The electric mass mE has been determined from the momentum space longitudinal gluon propagator. Gribov copy effects are found to be rather strong in the gluodynamics, while in the full QCD case they are weak ("Gribov noise"). Also we analyze finite volume dependence of the transverse and longitudinal propagators.

Damping Rate

The damping rate of a heavy muon/quark in a hot QED/QCD plasma is calculated in the Landau gauge to the effective one-loop order in the resummed perturbation theory of Braaten and Pisarski. For both a muon/quark at rest and in an energetic case we obtain to leading order the same result as in the Coulomb gauge. Resummation of hard-thermal loop corrections to the photon/gluon propagator is of key importance for this gauge independence.

The Continuum

We calculated the SU(2) gluon propagator in Landau gauge on an anisotropic coarse lattice with the improved action. The standard and improved schemes are used to fix the gauge in this work. Even on the coarse lattice the lattice gluon propagator can be well described by a function of the continuous momentum. The effect of the improved gauge fixing scheme is found not to be apparent. Based on the Marenzoni's model, the mass scale and the anomalous dimension are extracted and can be reasonably extrapolated to the continuum limit with the values α~0.3 and M~600 MeV . We also extract the physical anisotropy ξ from the gluon propagator due to the explicit ξ dependence of the gluon propagator.
