Conclusions
QCD sum rulesIn this method the properties of the two point correlation function isfully exploited:
is calculated “perturbatively”,
using OPE

The basic problem to be solved
given (but only incomplete and
with error)
?“Kernel”
This is an ill-posed problem.
But, one may have additional information on ρ(ω), which can help to constrain the problem:
- Positivity:
- Asymptotic values:
The spectral function is usually assumed to be describable by a “pole + continuum” form (ground state + excited states):
This ansatz may not always be appropriate.

The usual approach
This very crude ansatz often works surprisingly well, but…
The dependence of the physical results on sth is often quite large.

A first test case: the ρmeson channel
Experiment:
mρ= 0.77 GeV
Fρ= 0.141 GeVThe position and residue of the ρ-meson are reproduced, but not its width.

During the last 10 years, a picture has emerged from studies using lattice QCD (and MEM), where J/ψ survives above TC.

Borel sum rules

We analyze two different sum rules:
Analysis at T=0
(Moments n=5~14 are used)
- The J/ψ peak is obtained close to the experimental value. - We also get a (nonsignificant) second peak.
→ Excited states?
→ MEM artifact?

The charmonium sum rules at finite TThe application of QCD sum rules has been developed in:

A non-scalar twist-2 gluon condensates appears due to the non-existence of Lorentz invariance at finite temperature:

The energy-momentum tensor is considered:
After matching the trace part and the traceless part, one gets:

Moment sum rules
melting of J/ψ!
Similar results are obtained with the Borel sum rules.
Conclusions
We have shown that MEM can be applied to QCD sum rules
The “pole + continuum” ansatz is not a necessity
We could observe the melting of J/ψ using finite temperature QCD sum rules and MEM
J/ψ seems to melt between T ~ 1.2 TC and T ~ 1.4 TC,, which is below the values obtained in lattice QCD
