The Nonabelian Debye Mass at Next-to-Leading Order
Abstract
It is shown that after a resummation of leading high-temperature contributions, a complete and gauge-independent result for the nonabelian Debye screening mass at next-to-leading order can be extracted from the static gluon propagator. In contrast to previous, incomplete results, the correction to the Debye mass is found to be logarithmically sensitive to the nonperturbative magnetic mass and positive, in accordance with recent high-statistics results from lattice calculations.
