Zero Point Energy of Renormalized Wilson Loops
Yoshimasa Hidaka, Robert D. Pisarski
The quark antiquark potential, and its associated zero point energy, can be extracted from lattice measurements of the Wilson loop. We discuss a unique prescription to renormalize…

Suppression of the shear viscosity near the critical temperature in hot QCD
Yoshimasa Hidaka, Robert D. Pisarski
We consider QCD near but above critical temperature Tc. The pressure, susceptibilities and the renormalized Polyakov loop -- which is an order parameter for the deconfining phase t…
