Abstract

We compute the free energy density for gauge theories, with fermions, at high temperature and zero chemical potential. Specifically, we analytically compute the free energy through O(g⁴), which requires the evaluation of three-loop diagrams. This computation extends our previous result for pure gauge QCD.
