Charmonium properties in hot quenched lattice QCD

We study the properties of charmonium states at finite temperature in quenched QCD on large and fine isotropic lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of charmonium correlation and spectral functions both below and above $T_c$. Our analysis suggests that both S wave states ($J/ψ$ and $η_c$) and P wave states ($χ_{c0}$ and $χ_{c1}$) disappear already at about $1.5 T_c$. The charm diffusion coefficient is estimated through the Kubo formula and found to be compatible with zero below $T_c$ and approximately $1/πT$ at $1.5 T_c\lesssim T\lesssim 3 T_c$.
