chiral condensate and suscptiblity of SU(2) $n_f=8$ naive staggered system

Abstract

The SU(2) gauge theory with 8 fundamental fermions is studied using unimproved staggered regularization. A phase transition or a crossover at strong coupling, which can be a bulk transition. By using chiral random matrix model we analyze the chiral condensate of this system. We also report the chiral susceptibility and its volume dependence near the transition point.
