Running coupling of 2-flavor QCD at zero and finite temperature

We present lattice studies of the running coupling in 2-flavor QCD. The coupling at zero temperature (T=0) is extracted from Wilson loops while the coupling at finite temperature (

T\neq0

) is determined from Polyakov loop correlation functions.
