Topological insights in many-flavor QCD on the lattice

Abstract

LatKMI Collaboration discusses the topological insights in many-flavor QCD on the lattice. We explore walking/conformal/confining phase in $N_{\mathrm{f}}$ = 4, 8 and 12 (in particular $N_{\mathrm{f}}$ = 8) lattice QCD via the topological charge and susceptibility, eigenvalues and anomalous dimension.
