Popis: | In a previous paper \cite{Jahn:2018dke} we presented a methodology for computing the topological susceptibility of QCD at temperatures where it is small and standard methods fail. Here we improve on this methodology by removing two barriers to the reweighting method's moving between topological sectors. We present high-statistics, continuum-extrapolated results for the susceptibility of pure-glue QCD up to $7 T_c$. We show that the susceptibility varies with temperature as $T^{-6.7\pm 0.3}$ between $T=2.5 T_c$ and $T=7 T_c$, in good agreement with expectations based on the dilute instanton gas approximation.
