Abstract

We present a Monte Carlo analysis of the SU(2) finite-temperature deconfinement transition on a body-centered hypercubic lattice. The behavior of the transition temperature Tc as a function of the lattice coupling appears to deviate from the perturbative prediction of asymptotic scaling. © 1986 The American Physical Society.
