Description
The thermodynamic properties of the $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory are
investigated from the confining phase up to 250 $T_c$. Results for the
temperature dependence of the entropy density, energy density and pressure
are presented with an accuracy of about 0.5%. The framework of shifted
boundary conditions is considered where the entropy density is related to
the expectation value of the off-diagonal components of the
energy-momentum tensor. The pressure and the energy density are then
obtained by numerical integration. A comparison with data collected by
other groups is discussed.
