摘要：This review gives a critical assessment of the current state of lattice simulations of QCD thermodynamics
and what it teaches us about hot hadronic matter. It outlines briefly lattice methods for
studying QCD at nonzero temperature and zero baryon number density with particular emphasis
on assessing and reducing cutoff effects. It discusses a variety of difficulties with methods for
determining the transition temperature. It uses results reported recently in the literature and at
this conference for illustration, especially those from a major study carried out by the HotQCD
collaboration.
