Abstract: Following the original idea of Debye, we define and extract a gauge-invariant screening mass from the complex static in-medium heavy-quark potential $$, recently obtained from lattice QCD. To this end we derive a field theoretically motivated analytic formula that faithfully reproduces both the screened real- as well as the imaginary part of the lattice potential with a single temperature dependent fit parameter $m_D(T)$. Using values of the real part of $$ in a gluonic medium, we obtain Debye masses compatible with predictions from HTL perturbation theory.
