title: J/psi and eta(c) in the deconfined plasma from lattice QCD.
abstract: Analyzing correlation functions of charmonia at finite temperature (T) on 32(3)x(32-96) anisotropic lattices by the maximum entropy method (MEM), we find that J/psi and eta(c) survive as distinct resonances in the plasma even up to T approximately 1.6T(c) and that they eventually dissociate between 1.6T(c) and 1.9T(c) (T(c) is the critical temperature of deconfinement). This suggests that the deconfined plasma is nonperturbative enough to hold heavy-quark bound states. The importance of having a sufficient number of temporal data points in MEM analyses is also emphasized.
