Approaching the continuum with anisotropic lattice thermodynamics

The FASTSUM collaboration has a long-standing programme of using anisotropic lattice QCD to investigate strong interaction thermodynamics, and in particular spectral quantities. Here we present first results from our new ensemble which has a temporal lattice spacing a_t=15am and anisotropy xi=a_s/a_t=7, giving unprecedented resolution in the temporal direction. We show results for the chiral transition, vector-axial-vector degeneracy, and heavy quarkonium, and compare them with earlier results with coarser time resolution.

Recent Results from the FASTSUM Collaboration

The FASTSUM Collaboration has developed a comprehensive research programme in thermal QCD using 2+1 flavour, anisotropic ensembles. In this talk, we summarise some of our recent results including thermal hadron spectrum calculations using our ``Generation 2L'' ensembles which have pion masses of 239(1) MeV. These include open charm mesons and charm baryons. We also summarise our work using the Backus Gilbert approach to determining the spectral function of the NRQCD bottomonium system. Finally, we review our determination of the interquark potential in the same system, but using our ``Generation 2'' ensembles which have heavier pion masses of 384(4) MeV.

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.
