The potential is scaled with the screening mass m D as well as with the interaction strength, Q aQb. So, the details of the potential will depend on the temperature, the strong coupling constant and the sign of the interaction strength [47]
Their strength of the color interaction [46] can be calculated using SU(3) color group
