dc.descriptionWe non-perturbatively study the fermion spectrum in the chiral symmetric phase focusing on the effects of in-medium corrections for gauge boson. The fermion spectrum is derived by solving the Schwinger-Dyson equation (SDE) with ladder approximation on the real time axis. It is shown that the peak of the fermion spectral function is broadened by in-medium effects for gauge boson compared with the peak obtained with the tree gauge boson propagator. The peak becomes much broader as the value of the gauge coupling increases. This broadening is caused by multiple scatterings of fermions and gauge bosons included through the non-perturbative resummation done by the SDE. In particular, the Landau damping of gauge boson propagator plays an important role in the broadening. Our results show no clear peak in the strong coupling region, implying the disappearance of quasi-fermions in the strongly coupled plasma. This indicates that quasi-particle picture may be no longer valid in the strongly coupled QGP.
