Description
We analyse the properties of thermal monopoles in the high temperature phase of QCD with N_f = 2+1 flavours and physical quark masses. In particular, we determine the temperature where monopoles show condensation properties similar to those already studied in pure gauge Yang-Mills theories and related to the onset of confinement, comparing it with the temperature where chiral symmetry restoration takes place.
