Description

We present preliminary results on the critical endpoint of three flavor QCD at zero chemical potential. We employ the renormalization-group improved Iwasaki gauge action and $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermion action. The critical endpoint is determined by using the intersection points of kurtosis for mixed observable as well as plaquette, gange action density, Polyakov loop and "chiral condensate" at the temporal size $N_t$=4, 6 and 8.
