Unlike the conventional method in which the temporal lattice size N t is fixed, the temperature T is varied by changing N t at the fixed lattice scale. The pressure of the hot QCD plasma is calculated by the integration of the trace anomaly with respect to T at the fixed lattice scale. This “T -integral method” is tested in quenched QCD on isotropic and anisotropic lattices and is shown to give reliable results, especially at intermediate and low temperatures.}, title = {Fixed Scale approach to equation of state in lattice QCD}, volume = {79}, year = {2009} }
