TY - JOUR AB - We study the finite temperature deconfinement transition in SU(3) Yang-Mills theory, using a high statistics Monte Carlo evaluation on a 83 × 3 lattice. It is shown to be of first order: at the critical temperature, there is a clear two-state signal; above and below, we have hysteresis behaviour.
