The paper “Partial deconfinement: a brief overview“, co-authored by Masanori Hanada and Hiromasa Watanabe (Kyoto University) has been published in the Special Topics section of the European Physical Journal. The confinement/deconfinement transition in gauge theory plays important roles in physics, including the description of thermal phase transitions in the dual gravitational theory. Partial deconfinement implies […]
