Abstract: (arXiv)
We investigate the modification of S and P wave states in the bottomonium spectrum above and below the deconfinement crossover temperature through their spectral functions obtained from the maximum entropy method. Anisotropic ensembles with Nf=2+1N_f=2+1 Wilson clover fermions with tadpole-improvement are used while the bottom quark is treated with an improved non-relativistic action. We observe significant modifications of the P wave χb1\chi_{b1} ground state directly above the crossover temperature, TcT_c, while the S wave Υ\Upsilon ground state remains relatively unchanged up to temperatures of almost 2Tc2T_c. This evidence supports earlier conclusions from our FASTSUM collaboration of the immediate dissociation of the P wave states above TcT_c and the survival of the S wave ground states up to 2Tc2T_c.
