abstract

We perform a real-time simulation of the $O(4)$ critical point of QCD, which lies in the dynamic universality class of Model G. The axial charge and the order parameter $\phi_a =(\sigma, \vec{\pi})$ exhibit a rich dynamical interplay, which reflects the qualitative differences in the hydrodynamic effective theories above and below $T_c$. From the axial charge correlators on the critical line we extract a dynamical critical exponent of $\zeta=1.47 \pm 0.01 ({\rm stat})$, which is compatible with the theoretical expectation of $\zeta = d/2$ (with $d=3$) when systematic errors are taken into account. At low temperatures, we quantitatively match the $O(4)$ simulations to the superfluid effective theory of soft pions.

    hep-th 2026-08 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    The exactly dissipationless critical dynamics of a scalar field is an invariant but unstable surface of the RG flow, and any small friction drives it to Model A, with new two-loop dynamic exponents.
