On static quark anti-quark potential at non-zero temperature
A. Bazavov, P. Petreczky
TL;DR
This paper investigates the static quark-antiquark potential at finite temperature by analyzing Wilson loops, revealing that the potential remains unscreened below 190 MeV and is larger than the singlet free energy.
Contribution
It provides a novel analysis of the static quark potential at non-zero temperature, challenging the assumption of screening below certain temperatures.
Findings
Potential is larger than singlet free energy.
No screening observed for T<190 MeV.
Potential remains unscreened below 190 MeV.
Abstract
We study Wilson loops at non-zero temperature and extract the static quark potential from them. The extracted potentials are larger than the singlet free energies and do not show screening for MeV.
