Abstract

Taking into account the additional operators coming up at finite temperature, we investigate the mass and residue of the nucleon in the framework of thermal QCD sum rules. We observe that the mass and residue of the nucleon are initially insusceptible to the increase of temperature, however, after a certain temperature, they start to fall with increasing the temperature.
