Abstract
A new method is proposed for determining the critical indices of the deconfinement transition in gauge theories, based on the finite-size scaling analysis of simple lattice operators, such as the plaquette. A precise determination of the critical index ν, in agreement with the prediction of the Svetitsky-Yaffe conjecture, is obtained for SU(3) gauge theory in (2+1)-dimension. Preliminary results for SU(2) in (3+1)-dimension are also given.
