A field theoretical model for QCD thermodynamics
QCD thermodynamics is investigated by means of a field theoretical model, which allows a simultaneous study of deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration phase transitions. The equation of state is discussed, together with the phase diagram and position of the critical point. A detailed comparison with the%0Acorresponding lattice QCD results is performed.
