Abstract: 
We calculate spectral functions of the relativistic O (4) model from real-time lattice simulations in classical-statistical field theory. While in the low and high temperature phase of the model, the spectral functions of longitudinal (sigma) and transverse (pi) modes are well described by relativistic quasi-particle peaks, we find a highly non-trivial behavior of the spectral functions in the cross over region, where additional structures appear. Similarly, we observe a significant broadening of the quasi-particle peaks, when the amount explicit O (4) symmetry breaking is reduced. We further demonstrate that in the vicinity of the O (4) critical point, the spectral functions develop an infrared power law associated with the critical dynamics, and comment on the extraction of the dynamical critical exponent z from our simulations.
