## Abstract

We calculate the tension $\\sigma$ of the interface between the confined and deconfined phases by the histogram method in SU(3) lattice gauge theory for temporal extents of 4 and 6 using the recent high-statistics data by QCDPAX collaboration. The results are $\\sigma/T\_c^3 = 0.0292(22)$ and 0.0218(33) for $N\_t=4$ and 6, respectively. The ratio $\\sigma/T\_c^3$ shows a scaling violation similar to that already observed for the latent heat $\\latent$. However, we find that the physically interesting dimensionless combinations $(\\sigma^{3}/\\latent^2 T)^{1/2}$ and $\\sigma T/ \\latent$ scale within the statistical errors.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
