β¦ Synopsis
We report new results from our finite size scaling analysis of 4d compact pure U(1) gauge theory with Wilson action. Investigating several cumulants of the plaquette energy within the Borgs-Kotecky finite size scaling scheme we find strong evidence for a first-order phase transition and present a high precision value for the critical coupling, PT in the thermodynamic limit.

After decades of intensive research, the question remains relations between the constants. We show that ionic potentials of generalized Kratzer-type (Varshni's V th whether or not a universal two-or three-parameter potential exists. For a large number of about 300 bonds, we now potential) and their
