Description

The diffusion of a heavy quarkonium in a strongly interacting plasma can
be described, using a nonrelativistic effective field theory formalism,
in terms of transport coefficients related to the
correlators of color electric fields connected by adjoint Wilson lines.
These transport coefficients are important for the calculation
of quarkonia suppression in the plasma. We present a lattice calculation
of these correlators for the SU(3) gluon plasma. Both the
multilevel formalism and the gradient flow were used.
We compare the nonperturbative correlators with the NLO
perturbative results.
We also compare these correlators with the color electric
field correlators used for the study of heavy quark diffusion
in the plasma.
