The momentum diffusion coefficient is extracted from a Monte Carlo calculation of the correlation function of color electric fields, in the leading order of expansion in heavy quark mass. Systematics of the calculation are examined, and compared with perturbtion theory and other estimates.en500 - Science::530 - PhysicsAn estimate of heavy quark momentum diffusion coefficient in gluon plasmaconference_item10.7892/boris.45167
