Abstract
We present results for the wave functions and the screening mass spectrum
for quantum numbers 0++, 1- and 2++ in the three-dimensional
SU(2)-Higgs model near to the phase transition line below the endpoint
and in the crossover region. Varying the 3D gauge couplings we study the
behaviour along a line of constant physics towards the continuum limit in
both phases. In the crossover region the changing spectrum of screening
states versus temperature is examined showing the aftermath of the phase
transition at lower Higgs mass. Different to smearing concepts we used large
sets of operators with various extensions allowing to identify wave
functions in position space.
