Abstract: (Elsevier)
We argue that the static color-singlet correlation functions (DeTar correlators) in three-dimensional QCD at high temperature are calculable in the dimensionally reduced theory. We estimate the correlation length in these correlators by solving an analogue two-dimensional Coulomb bound state problem. In the case of hot QCD in four dimensions, the method is less rigorous, but does give results consistent with recent numerical calculations.
