Abstract
While the QCD Lagrangian as the whole is only chirally symmetric, its electric part has larger chiral-spin [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] symmetries. This allows separation of the electric and magnetic interactions in a given reference frame. Artificial truncation of the near-zero modes of the Dirac operator results in the emergence of the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] symmetries in hadron spectrum. This implies that while the confining electric interaction is distributed among all modes of the Dirac operator, the magnetic interaction is located at least predominantly in the near-zero modes. Given this observation one could anticipate that above the pseudocritical temperature, where the near-zero modes of the Dirac operator are suppressed, QCD is [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] symmetric, which means absence of deconfinement in this regime. Solution of the [Formula: see text] QCD on the lattice with a chirally symmetric Dirac operator reveals that indeed in the interval [Formula: see text] QCD is approximately [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] symmetric which implies that degrees of freedom are chirally symmetric quarks bound by the chromoelectric field into color-singlet objects without the chromomagnetic effects. This regime is referred to as a Stringy Fluid. At larger temperatures this emergent symmetry smoothly disappears and QCD approaches the Quark–Gluon Plasma regime with quasifree quarks. The Hadron Gas, the Stringy Fluid and the Quark–Gluon Plasma differ by symmetries, degrees of freedom and properties.
