Heavy quark thermodynamics with anisotropic lattices

Jon-Ivar Skullerud, Rachel Horohan D'Arcy, Gert Aarts +11

We present recent results from the FASTSUM collaboration, using anisotropic lattice QCD to study spectral properties of heavy quarkonia and open heavy flavour systems at high tempe…

On the effective restoration of symmetry at finite temperature

Gert Aarts, Chris Allton, Ryan Bignell +4

The symmetry of the massless QCD Lagrangian is explicitly broken by the axial anomaly, but it may be effectively restored at finite temperature. Determining the temperatur…

Structure of QCD ground state fields at nonzero matter densities

Ragib F. Hasan, Matthew Cummins, Waseem Kamleh +4

A quantitative investigation into the modification of ground-state field structures in two-color QCD (QCD) is presented at finite chemical potential. Using lattice simulations…

symmetry restoration at finite temperature with mesonic correlators

Ryan Bignell, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +4

The symmetry of the massless QCD Lagrangian is explicitly broken in the quantised theory by the anomaly. It may be effectively restored at some finite temperature, which w…

The curvature of the pseudo-critical line in the QCD phase diagram from mesonic lattice correlation functions

Antonio Smecca, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +6

In the QCD phase diagram, the dependence of the pseudo-critical temperature, , on the baryon chemical potential, , is of fundamental interest. The variation of $…

Approaching the continuum with anisotropic lattice thermodynamics

Jon-Ivar Skullerud, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +12

The FASTSUM collaboration has a long-standing programme of using anisotropic lattice QCD to investigate strong interaction thermodynamics, and in particular spectral quantities. He…
