Bottomonium spectral widths at nonzero temperature using maximum likelihood

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2021-12-16 v2

Abstract

We present progress results from the Fastsum collaboration's programme to determine the spectrum of the bottomonium system as a function of temperature using a variety of approaches. In these proceedings, the Maximum Likelihood approach is used with an Ansatz comprising of a Gaussian spectral function for the ground state. Fastsum anisotropic lattices with 2+1 dynamical quark flavours were used with temperatures ranging from 47 to 375 MeV.
