Finite-temperature gluon spectral functions from $$N_f=2+1+1$$ Nf=2+1+1 lattice QCD

Abstract We investigate gluon correlation functions and spectral functions at finite temperature in Landau gauge on lattice QCD ensembles with $$N_f=2+1+1$$ Nf=2+1+1 dynamical twisted-mass quarks flavors, generated by the tmfT collaboration. They cover a temperature range from $$0.8\le T/T_C\le 4$$...
