Equilibrium Thermodynamics of Lattice QCD

Abstract

Lattice QCD allows us to simulate QCD at non-zero temperature and/or densities. Such equilibrium thermodynamics calculations are relevant to the physics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. I give a brief review of the field with emphasis on our work.Comment: 15 pages, 9 figures. Talk presented at SCGT06, Nagoya, Japan.
