Approaching the continuum with anisotropic lattice thermodynamics
Abstract
The FASTSUM collaboration has a long-standing programme of using anisotropic lattice QCD to investigate strong interaction thermodynamics, and in particular spectral quantities. Here we present first results from our new ensemble which has a temporal lattice spacing at=15am and anisotropy xi=as/at=7, giving unprecedented resolution in the temporal direction. We show results for the chiral transition, vector-axial-vector degeneracy, and heavy quarkonium, and compare them with earlier results with coarser time resolution.
