Description

We present new results for Sp(4) Yang-Mills theory around its first-order thermal phase transition by reconstructing the density of states via the LLR algorithm. We show results on different space and time extents, as well as aspect ratios, and estimate discretization artifacts. We see clear signatures of the first-order transition and determine the critical coupling, the specific heat and set bounds on the surface tension.
