SU(N) gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions: Further results

We calculate the string tension and part of the mass spectrum of SU(4) and SU(6) gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions using lattice techniques. We combine these new results with older results for Nc=2, . . . ,5 so as to obtain more accurate extrapolations to Nc=∞. The qualitative conclusions of the earl...
