In SU(2) lattice QCD at finite density, the chiral magnetic effect from axial-vector correlators remains close to the free massless quark value with weak T and mu dependence in the plasma, while negative magnetoresistance from vector correlators is strongly suppressed at high density or temperature.

abstract
Electric conductivity is sensitive to effective cross sections among the particles of the partonic medium. We investigate the electric conductivity of a hot plasma of quarks and gluons, solving the relativistic Boltzmann equation. In order to extract this transport coefficient, we employ the Green-Kubo formalism and, independently, a method motivated by the classical definition of electric conductivity. To this end we evaluate the static electric diffusion current upon the influence of an electric field. Both methods give identical results. For the first time, we obtain numerically the Drude electric conductivity formula for an ultrarelativistic gas of quarks and gluons employing constant isotropic binary cross sections. Furthermore, we extract the electric conductivity for a system of massless quarks and gluons including screened binary and inelastic, radiative $2\leftrightarrow 3$ perturbative QCD scattering. Comparing with recent lattice results, we find an agreement in the temperature dependence of the conductivity.

Chiral Magnetic Effect and Negative Magnetoresistance across the phase diagram of finite-density SU(2) gauge theory
In SU(2) lattice QCD at finite density, the chiral magnetic effect from axial-vector correlators remains close to the free massless quark value with weak T and mu dependence in the plasma, while negative magnetoresistance from vector correlators is strongly suppressed at high density or temperature.
