Thermal lattice QCD results from the FASTSUM collaboration

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 charm mesons and charm baryons at non-zero temperature. We also detail our determination of the interquark potential in the bottomonium system using NRQCD quarks. All of our work uses anisotropic lattices where the temporal lattice spacing is considerably finer than the spatial one allowing better resolution of temporal correlation functions.

Hadrons at high temperature: an update from the FASTSUM collaboration

We present the most recent results from the FASTSUM collaboration for hadron properties at high temperature. This includes the temperature dependence of the light and charmed meson and baryon spectrum, as well as properties of heavy quarkonia. The results are obtained using anisotropic lattices with a fixed scale approach. We also present the status of our next generation gauge ensembles.

Open charm mesons at nonzero temperature: results in the hadronic phase from lattice QCD

We study what happens to D and D_s mesons as the temperature increases, using lattice QCD simulations with N_f=2+1 dynamical flavours on anistropic lattices. We have access to five temperatures in the hadronic phase. Using the determined groundstate mass at the lowest temperature, we investigate the effect of rising temperature by analysing ratios of mesonic correlators, without the need for further fitting or spectral reconstruction. In the pseudoscalar and vector channels, we demonstrate that temperature effects are at the percent level and can be captured by a reduction of the groundstate mass as the thermal crossover is approached. In the axial-vector and scalar channels on the other hand, temperature effects are prominent throughout the hadronic phase.

Meson thermal masses at different temperatures

We determine the ground state meson masses at low temperature using simulations with $2+1$ flavours of improved Wilson-clover fermions. Subsequently we study the effect of increasing the temperature of the hadron gas, including the transition to the quark-gluon plasma, as well as the restoration of $SU(2)_A$ chiral symmetry. We use the FASTSUM anisotropic, fixed-scale Generation2L ensembles and consider mesons with light, strange and charm content.
