4 Static potential Wilson loop Wilson loop A gauge invariant quantity of particular interest for this study is the Wilson loop 1 : W (r, T ) = Tr [Pe ig ] r T dzµ A µ T Fixing the unitary gauge along the time direction, the expectation value of the Wilson loop is the analogue of the meson-meson correlator and so it is related to the interquark potential by the area-perimeter law: r V (r)t W (r, T ) e T (σrt +c(r+t )+k) = e 1 K.

5 Static potential Wilson loop Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 5 / 9 Static potential So for the static potential we have: 1 V (r) = lim ln W (r, T ) = σr + c T T where σ is the string tension which has the dimension of a squared mass. This potential is a conning potential. Connement is usually associated to the creation of a ux tube between the quark and antiquark and thus it is necessary to consider also the quantum uctuations of the ux tube. The theory which describes these quantum uctuations is the eective string theory (EST).

6 Static potential EST Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 6 / 9 Eective string theory In the EST framework: lim W (r, T ) = T Dξ l e S string where ξ l = ξ l (τ, z), l = 1,..., 4 are the components of the string. The simplest eective string action is the Nambu Goto action: T r S NG = σ dτ dz g where g is the determinant of the induced metric and τ and z are the longitudinal coordinates of the string. If we x the physical gauge and we consider only the rst two terms of the expansion of g, the string action may be written as: T r S NG = σ dτ dz (1 + 1 ) µξ l µ ξ l

Phys. 77, 143 (5) Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 8 / 9 Eective eld theories The expression of the potential is given in terms of expectation values of Wilson loop with the insertion of suitable operators, within an expansion in 1/m, m beeing the mass of the heavy quarks. The basic idea behind EFTs is that to describe observables of a particular energy region, one can integrate out the degrees of freedom of the other regions. This produces an eective action involving only the degrees of freedom in the region we are interested in. Heavy quarkonia are characterized by three widely separated scales: the hard scale (the mass m of the heavy quarks); the soft scale (the relative momentum of the heavy quark-antiquark p p mv, v 1); the ultra soft scale (the typical kinetic energy E mv of the heavy quark and antiquark). Moreover, by denition of heavy quark, m Λ QCD.

9 EFT NRQCD and pnrqcd Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 9 / 9 NRQCD and pnrqcd In order to calculate the expression of the heavy quark-antiquark potential up to order 1/m it is necessary to integrate out in two steps the hard and soft scales. The two QCD eective eld theories that arise from integrating out the scales m and mv are called non relativistic QCD (NRQCD) and potential non relativistic QCD (pnrqcd). NRQCD 3 is obtained integrating out the degrees of freedom with energies much larger than mv; has an ultraviolet cut-o Λ which is Λ QCD Λ m; the Lagrangian is organized in powers of 1/m. pnrqcd 4 it is obtained integrating out the degrees of freedom with energies much larger than mv ; has two UV cut-os: mv Λ 1 mv and mv Λ m. 3 W.

Up to order 1/m the quark-antiquark potential can be written as the sum of three terms 5 where: V () (r) = σr π 1r V = V () + V (1/m) + V (1/m ) is the static potential; V (1/m) (r) = m V (1,) (r) is the 1/m potential; V (1/m) = 1 m { V (,) (r) + V (1,1) (r) } is the 1/m potential.

The expectation value of the rectangular Wilson loop can be rewritten as: W (T, r) = O( T, r)o ( T, r) O(t, r) = χ (t)φ(t, r ; t, r )ψ(t) where φ(t, r; t, r ) is the straight Wilson line joining r and r at the time t.

27 Potential at nite temperature Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 5 / 9 r L limit In this regime it is convenient to perform a modular transformation τ 1/τ of the expression of the correlator we previously used. In this way one obtains: G lm (w; w ) = δlm ln θ 1 [iπ(w w )/L] πσ θ 4 [iπ(w + w )/L] + δlm Re(w)Re(w ) σ rl where θ 1 (w) and θ 4 (w) are the Jacobi theta functions and w = z + iτ. In the r limit, the correlator becomes: [ G lm (τ, z; τ, z ) = (ln(q δlm 1/4 ) + 1 πσ ln cosh[ π(z z ) L ] cos[ π(τ τ ) L ] This is the expression of the two string elds correlator which will be used to obtain the results in the r L limit. ]).

35 Potential at nite temperature Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 9 / 9 Conclusions The corrections to the string tension that we computed lead to a decrease of the deconnement temperature when the mass of the quarks decreases. This general behaviour is in qualitatively agreement with the one obtained through numerical lattice simulations. The next step will be to quantitatively compare this theoretical prediction with lattice data.

Consider a heavy quark of mass m 1 located at x 1 and a heavy antiquark of mass m located at x. The Hamiltonian of NRQCD is expressed as a power expansion in 1/m H = H () + H(1,) m 1 + H(,1) m + H(,) m 1 + H(,) m + H(1,1) m 1 m. Splitting the Hamiltonian as H = H () + H I, the eigenvalues E n (x 1, x ; p 1, p ) of H can be obtained from the static solution by working out formulas analogous to the one used in standard quantum mechanics perturbation theory. Hence, it is possible to write also E n within an expansion in 1/m: E n = E n () + E n (1,) + E n (,1) + E n (,) m 1 m m 1 + E n (,) m + E n (1,1) m 1 m

44 Potential at nite temperature Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 9 / 9 Field correlators E i 1 (it)ej 1 () c is easily calculated as follows: E l 1(it)E m 1 () c = Λ 4 z z ξ l (it, r/)ξ m (, r/) = ( lm Λ4 cosh[(t t = δ 4πσ )π/r] + cos[(z + z z z ln cosh[(t t )π/r] cos[(z z )π/r]) z=z = r t = which gives us: E i 1(it)E j () 1 c = δ ij πλ 4 ( πt ) 4σr sinh r where δ ij = for i or j = 3 and δ ij = δ ij for i, j = 1,. This is due to the fact that the third component of the chromoelectric eld is mapped into a constant, and so the quantity E 3 1 (it)e3 1 () c is equal to zero.

45 Potential at nite temperature Carla Marchis (UniTo) O(1/m ) heavy Q Q potential at nite T 9/3/15 9 / 9 Field correlators For the other correlators one proceeds in a similar way and obtains: E i 1(it)E j () c = δ ij πλ 4 4σr B l 1(it)B l Λ 1() c = π3 4σr 4 l=1 ( πt ), cosh r sinh 4 ( πt r ( πt ), sinh 6 r ) [ + cosh ( πt )], r Λ B 3 1(it)B 3 1() c = π4 16σ r 6 [ Λ ( E 1(it 1) E 1(it )E 1(it 3) E 1() 8 c = π sinh πt ) ( ) sinh π(t1 t 3) 8σ r 4 r r ( + sinh πt1 ) ( sinh π(t t 3) r r [ Λ ( E 1(it 1) E 1(it )E (it 3) E () 8 c = π cosh πt ) ( ) cosh π(t1 t 3) 8σ r 4 r r ( + cosh πt1 ) ( cosh π(t t 3) r r )], )].

So one obtains: V (,) p (r) =. For the same aforementioned reason one gets: V (1,1) p (r) =.

47 V (,) Potential at nite temperature (r) and V (1,1) (r) L L V (,) L (r) = i 4 δij dt t g E i 1(t)g E j () 1 c. In order to compute this integral one has to proceed in the same way followed for the 1/m potential. V (,) L (r) = rg Λ 4 π σ dx X sinh X. Since the integration over X is one of the representations of the Riemann zeta-function of argument 1, nally one obtains: In a similar way one gets: V (,) L (r) = g Λ 4 6σ r. V (1,1) L (r) = g Λ 4 6σ r. 1 The representation to which we are referring is ζ(s) = s+1 1 t s 4 Γ(s+1) dt, which can be sinh t found in [?].
