The high-frequency finite-temperature quark dispersion relation

Abstract

I calculate the dispersion relation for quarks of mass mm and momentum kk in a quark gluon plasma at temperature TT, in the limit m2+k2(gT)2m^2+k^2 \gg (gT)^2, where gg is the strong coupling constant. I find three contributions to the dispersion relation: one that depends on TT but not mm or kk, one that depends on mm and TT but not kk, and third contribution that depends on all three (and is opposite in sign to the other two).
