We study the response functions (chromo-electric susceptibilities) for an interacting quark-gluon plasma. The interaction effects have been encoded in the effective fugacities for quasi-partons which are extracted self-consistently from the…
The Debye mass m_D is computed nonperturbatively in the deconfined phase of QCD, where chromomagnetic confinement is known to be present. The latter defines m_D to be m_D=c_D\sqrt{\sigma_s}, where c_D \approx 2 and \sigma_s=\sigma_s(T) is…
The increasing focus on unquenched lattice simulations has revived interest also in gluonic screening masses, whose inverses characterise the longest length scales at which thermal fluctuations are correlated in a hot non-Abelian plasma. We…
We present an alternative way to calculate the screening of the static potential between two charges in (non)abelian gauge theories at high temperatures. Instead of a loop expansion of a gauge boson self-energy, we evaluate the energy shift…
Decades of analytic and computational work have demonstrated that a charge immersed in a hot plasma is screened. For both Abelian and non-Abelian interactions, the characteristic screening length $1/m_D$ is set by the so-called Debye mass…
