Abstract
In order to study spectral quantities in thermal QCD, the FASTSUM collaboration employs anisotropic lattice simulations with N_f=2+1 flavours of Wilson fermions. Here we discuss our Generation 2 and Generation 2L ensembles, which differ in the pion mass. The focus is on observables related to the light quarks and chiral symmetry restoration.
