The phase diagram of N_f=3 QCD for small baryon densities

Abstract

We demonstrate how to locate the critical endpoint of the QCD phase transition by means of simulations at imaginary \mu. For the three flavor theory, we present numerical results for the pseudo-critical line as a function of chemical potential and bare quark mass, as well as the bare quark mass dependence of the endpoint.Comment: 3 pages, 5 eps-figs, Lattice2003(nonzero
