This volume contains the Proceedings of'the International Workshop "Lattice Gauge Theory 1986", held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, September 15 - 19, 1986. The meeting was the sequel to the one held at Wuppertal in 1985, the Proceedings of which have appeared in the same Plenum series.

Produktbeschreibung
This volume contains the Proceedings of'the International Workshop "Lattice Gauge Theory 1986", held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, September 15 - 19, 1986. The meeting was the sequel to the one held at Wuppertal in 1985, the Proceedings of which have appeared in the same Plenum series. During the past few years, a considerable number of meetings on lat tice gauge theory have been held, on both sides of the Atlantic. With our workshop, through early planning and coordination with other prospective organizers, we tried to channel this activity into one major yearly meeting. For 1986, these efforts were successful, and it is our hope that a pattern has been set for the coming years. One result, however, was that the number of participants considerably exceeded that normally found at NATO Advanced Research Workshops. This year, a "nucleus" of NATO-supported experts induced a large number of further interested specialists to obtain their own funds - thus greatly amplifying the impact of the event. The topics covered at the workshop ranged from hadron spectra to strong interaction thermo dynamics; they included spontaneous symmetry breaking and Higgs models, renormalization group methods, as well as many contributions on various possible schemes for the simulation of dynamical quarks. First systematic applications of finite size scaling to lattice gauge theory were discussed, and the approach to the continuum limit was considered in detail.
Autorenporträt
Helmut Satz, Professor Emeritus at the Fakultät für Physik, Universität Bielefeld, Germany, studied at Michigan State University and the University of Hamburg, where he received his doctorate in 1963 and did his habilitation in 1967. After that, he worked at the University of California/ Los Angeles, at CERN/Geneva, and the University of Helsinki. Satz has been Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Bielefeld since 1971, retiring in2001. In addition to his Bielefeld activities, he served on the staff of Brookhaven National Laboratory (1985 - 1989) and at CERN (1089 - 1996), specifically to carry out research on the physics of the Quark-Gluon-Plasma, the state of matter which made up the very early universe and which is presently being studied in high energy nuclear collision experiments. Professor Satz has been a great inspiration to his colleagues as well as his students, many of whom graduated under his supervision. After his retirement, he wasfrom 2002 to 2004 Gulbenkian professor at the Technical University of Lisbon, Portugal. Since 1994 he has been a member of the Finnish Academy of Sciences, and since 2014 he holds an honorary doctorate of the University of Wroclaw, Poland.
