Abstract
We present results of a numerical study of lattice QCD with four dynamical flavours of staggered fermions, performed by using a hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm on an 8× 123 lattice. We find a rapid change in the average value of the Polyakov loop at βc=5.25±0.025 for a quark mass ma=0.025; at this mass value, the behaviour of the chiral order parameter, (Ψ-Ψ) does not yet allow an independent determination of the transition point. Using existing hadron mass calculations, the value of βc we have obtained here would lead to a transition temperature T~100 MeV.
