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 $…
Finite temperature hadronic spectral properties
Ryan Bignell, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +9
The FASTSUM collaboration has a long-standing project examining hadronic properties using anisotropic lattice QCD. We determine the spectral properties of bottomonia at finite temp…
Spectral properties of bottomonium at high temperature: a systematic investigation
Jon-Ivar Skullerud, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +11
We investigate spectral features of bottomonium at high temperature, in particular the thermal mass shift and width of ground state S-wave and P-wave state. We employ and compare a…
Anisotropic excited bottomonia from a basis of smeared operators
Ryan Bignell, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +9
Bottomonia play a crucial role in our understanding of the quark gluon plasma. We present lattice non-relativistic QCD calculations of bottomonia at temperatures in the range $T \i…
The NRQCD spectrum at non-zero temperature using Backus-Gilbert regularisations
Antonio Smecca, Gert Aarts, Chris Allton +10
Understanding how the properties of heavy mesons change as temperature increases is crucial for gaining valuable insights into the quark-gluon plasma. Information about meson masse…
Thermal lattice QCD results from the FASTSUM collaboration
Chris Allton, Gert Aarts, M. Naeem Anwar +12
The FASTSUM Collaboration has developed a comprehensive research programme in thermal lattice QCD using 2+1 flavour ensembles. We review our recent hadron spectrum analyses of open…
