The chiral phase transition at strong coupling

Abstract
The transition to a chirally symmetric phase in lattice QCD is investigatedwith Susskind fermions. In the limit of large coupling and small temperature, the partition function is found to be that of an antiferromagnetic Ising model. The phase transition of the Ising model corresponds to chiral symmetry restoration. It occurs near zero temperature, well below the deconfining transition. The effects of introducing quarks in higher representations and approaching weaker couplings are discussed. © 1983.
