The finite temperature spatial (q) over barq correlation modes in the pi an
d rho channels are studied with the rainbow-ladder truncated quark Dyson-Sc
hwinger equation and Bethe-Salpeter equation in the Matsubara formalism. To
retain the finite range of the effective interaction while facilitating su
mmation over fermion Matsubara modes necessary to ensure continuity at T =
0, a separable kernel is used. The model is fixed by T = 0 properties and i
t implements dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and quark confinement. Tran
sition temperatures for deconfinement (T-d) and chiral restoration (T-c) ar
e identified. Above and below these transitions we study M-pi(T), f(pi),(T)
and the three-space transverse and longitudinal masses M-rho(T)(T) and M-r
ho(L)(T). We also study the intrinsic T-dependence of the electromagnetic c
oupling constant g(rho)(T) and the strong coupling constant g(rho pi pi)(T)
. For both this model and a related semi-analytic infrared dominant model,
we analyze the high T behavior of the obtained masses in comparison to the
M(T) --> 2 piT behavior found in lattice QCD simulations.
