Finite temperature hadronic spectral properties

Abstract

The FASTSUM collaboration has a long-standing project examining hadronic properties using anisotropic lattice QCD. We determine the spectral properties of bottomonia at finite temperature using lattice NRQCD and describe how our newer simulations improve our control over systematic errors. Motivated by these efforts, the temperature dependence of charm hadron masses is determined where it is found that temperature effects can extend into the confining phase and that some species remain stable deep past the pseudo-critical temperature.
