Transport contribution to the Euclidean correlators P.P. and D. Teaney, PRD 73 (2006) 014508 Lattice data ( Datta et al, ) :
Summary and Conclusions • With the help of Teraflop computers lattice calculation of the transition • temperature and EoS are approaching the continuum limit, • but still long way to go • The study of Wilson line correlators can help to better understand screening • at high temperatures:screening entropy produced by static charge • Lessons from heavy quarkonia correlators : • 1S charmonia states ( ) survive till unexpectedly high temperatures • indications for melting of 1P charmonia states ( ) • Euclidean correlators calculated on the lattice are sensitive to transport • contribution in the spectral functions but extracting transport coefficients is • very hard !
