rhertz Posted June 15, 2019 Report Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) Lattice QCD use discrete units of space and time to create a 3D grid, at which the QCD equations are solvednumerically, not analitically. But it requires increasing computing power to model smaller time and space units.An article from 2010 told about a consortium of 7 laboratories to develop the software and hardware to analyzea 256x1083 lattice (PetaQCD Project). This animated GIF is from a project from the CSSM lab, at the University of Adelaide (Australia).The gluonic soup is in light blue, and quarks appear and dissapear, as well as the gluon blobs.I don't know the scale of time used for this representation.
