摘要：After reviewing briefly the basic strategy of analyzing the RHIC data, recent lattice results of the
non-pertubative/strong-coupling aspects of quark-gluon plasma probed primarily by the heavy
quarks are presented. In particular, free energies of static quarks in various color channels, the
Debye screening mass and the spatial string tension above the pseudo-critical temperature are
discussed on the basis of the full QCD simulations with staggered quarks and withWilson quarks.
Current status of the equal-time Bethe-Salpeter wave functions and the spectral functions of the
charmoniums in quenched QCD simulations is also summarized. It is argued that the hot plasma
above the (pseudo-)critical temperature Tc is still strongly interacting up to T » (1.5−2)Tc so
that hadronic bound states or resonances made of strange, charm and bottom quarks in certain
channels may survive inside the plasma. An attempt to extract the spectral functions at finite T in
full QCD simulations is also mentioned.
