摘要:Thanks to dimensional reduction, the contributions to the hot QCD pressure coming from socalled
soft modes can be studied via an effective three-dimensional theory named Electrostatic
QCD (spatial Yang-Mills fields plus an adjoint Higgs scalar). The poor convergence of the perturbative
series within EQCD suggests to perform lattice measurements of some of the associated
gluon condensates. These turn out, however, to be plagued by large discretization artifacts. We
discuss how Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory can be exploited to determine the full lattice
spacing dependence of one of these condensates up to 4-loop order, and sharpen our tools on
a concrete 2-loop example.
