abstract

We study the correlator of temporal Wilson lines at non-zero temperature in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD with the aim to define the heavy quark-antiquark potential at non-zero temperature. For temperatures $153~{\rm MeV} \leq T \leq 352~{\rm MeV}$ the spectral representation of this correlator is consistent with a broadened peak in the spectral function, position or width of which then defines the real or imaginary parts of the heavy quark-antiquark potential at non-zero temperature, respectively. We find that the potential's real part is not screened contrary to the widely-held expectations. We comment on how this fact may modify the picture of quarkonium melting in the quark-gluon plasma.

  1. In-medium bottomonium properties from lattice NRQCD calculations with extended meson operators

    hep-lat 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Bottomonium masses do not shift in the quark-gluon plasma up to 250 MeV, but thermal widths are nonzero and highly sensitive to the assumed spectral function shape.

  2. Non-relativistic QCD Study of Excited Bottomonia at Finite Temperatures on a Fine Lattice

    hep-lat 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Excited bottomonia in a quark-gluon plasma acquire temperature-dependent widths with no significant mass shifts, according to a Gaussian model fit to lattice NRQCD correlators.

  3. What is the Quark-Gluon Plasma made of?

    nucl-th 2025-06 accept novelty 2.0 of 10

    The quark-gluon plasma is best described as a strongly coupled liquid of massive, very short-lived quark and gluon quasiparticles, with sound (phonon) modes becoming the most well-defined collective excitation at low momenta.
