Abstract: (Elsevier)

The thermodynamics of the quark plasma is studied by means of the exact Green function in the instanton field. The correction to the instanton action due to the interaction with a cold ( T → 0) plasma of light quarks is computed up to the g 2 terms. The action falls abruptly when the instanton radius increases and effects of instanton suppression by the plasma are absent. Large instantons are strongly distorted by the plasma and there are no instantons greater than the Debye radius.
