Description
The matter produced in heavy ion collisions at ALICE and RHIC can be characterized as a strongly couplend quark gluon plasma. Within this plasma, the heavy quarks can be seen to behave with Langevin dynamics, with the diffusion expressed with heavy quark momentum diffusion coefficient. We measure the diffusion coefficient non-perturbatively using lattice field theory simulations. We present the results in very wide temperature range allowing us to connect to perturbation theory and observe the temperature dependence of this quantity.
