Charmonium dissociation and heavy quark transport in hot quenched lattice QCD

We study the properties of charmonium states at finite temperature in quenched lattice QCD on large and fine isotropic lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of charmonium correlation and spectral functions both below and above Tc. Our analysis suggests that the S wave states disappear at about 1.5 Tc. The charm diffusion coeffcient is estimated and found to be approximately 1/πT at 1.5Tc ≲ T ≲ 3Tc.
