  2. 1.) Introduction: A “Calibrated” QCD Force 1.5 1 0.5 0 -0.5 -1 [GeV] V1 [GeV] T=0 r [fm] 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 1.25 1.5 [Bazavov et al ‘13] • Vacuum quarkonium spectroscopy well described • Confinement ↔ linear part of potential Opportunity: Utilize quarkonia to probe in-medium QCD force ↔ infer consequences for transport coeffs. + spectral functs. ↔ probe QGP properties at varying resolution

  4. 1.3 Quarkonia in Medium • Lattice-QCD suggests gradual progression • of color screening • Remnant confining force above Tpc • (1S): color-Coulomb (EB=1.1GeV) • J/y, (2S,3S): confining force (0.6-0.2) • y(2S): barely bound(<0.1) • Do not use as a thermometer … • Screening lowers binding energies EB(T) •  opens phase space for dissociation • Dissociation rate Gy(p;T) is key transport • parameter for phenomenology

  5. 1.4 Systematic Approach to Heavy Flavor in Matter TheoryTransportExperiment latQCD HQ free energy Heavy-quark potential HQ interactions in QGP (Ds) Open HF observables Quarkonium observables Quarkonium binding EB Quarkonium reaction rate GY

  6. Outline 1.) Introduction 2.) Current Status 3.) In-Medium Binding and Dissociation • Melting vs. Regeneration 4.) Cold-Nuclear-Matter Effects • Baseline vs. in-Medium Probe 5.) Conclusions

  7. 2.1 Excitation Functions in AuAu / PbPb Charmonium Bottomonium • Gradual increase of total J/yRAA • Regeneration and suppression increase • Regeneration concentrated at low pT! [data: NA50, PHENIX, STAR, ALICE, CMS] • Gradual suppression • Regeneration (Nϒeq) small • Qualitative difference from J/y

  8. 2.2 Current Quarkonium Phenomenology Use temperature estimates from hydro/photons/dileptonsto infer: Tmelt(y’) < TSPS(~240) <Tmelt(J/y,)≤TRHIC (~350) < Tmelt() ≤ TLHC (~550) • Remnants of confining force survive at SPS[melt y’, J/y intact] • Confining force screened atRHIC+LHC [melt J/y+’] • Color-Coulomb screening at LHC[(1S) suppression] • Thermalizing charm quarks recombine at LHC[large J/y yield] 1.5 1 0.5 0 -0.5 -1 r [fm] 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 1.25 1.5 350 240 550 (2S) J/, (2S) (1S)

  9. Outline 1.) Introduction 2.) Current Status 3.) In-Medium Binding and Reaction Rate • Melting vs. Regeneration 4.) Cold-Nuclear-Matter Effects • Baseline vs. in-Medium Probe 5.) Conclusions

  10. 3.1 Binding Energies + Reaction Rates: Y States 1S 1P 2S 1S 2S 1P 1S 1P 2S • Reduced binding “accelerates” dissociation ( GY(EB=0) = 2Gb ) • Localizes dissociation temperatures (centrality dependence!) • Same rate for regeneration – experimental signatures of production time?

  11. 3.2 Sensitivity of RAA to Binding Energies 1S 2S 1P • ϒ(1S) suppression can discriminate (gradual) melting scenarios, need good control over auxiliary model components (bulk, CNM,...) • ϒ(2S,3S): need lower energies (RHIC), smaller systems (pPb!), or…

  12. 3.3  Elliptic Flow • Directly reflects production/suppression time! (1S):early, (2S):late(r)

  13. 3.4 Charmonia: Production Time + “Flow Bump” J/y y’ • Need low-pTRAAdata to discriminate • Sequential regeneration?! • Recall double ratio of CMS…

  14. Outline 1.) Introduction 2.) Current Status 3.) In-Medium Binding and Dissociation • Melting vs. Regeneration 4.) Cold-Nuclear-Matter Effects • Baseline vs. in-Medium Probe 5.) Conclusions

  15. 4.1 Divide out Cold-Nuclear-Matter Effects RAAhotRAAtot / SCNM • J/y suppression at SPS mostly from feeddown (N ~7.5mb), melts in the RHIC→ LHC regime (not unlike (2S))

  16. 4.2 (1S): Rapidity Puzzle • problem of large(r) suppression in 2.76 TeV ALICE data • beware of cold nuclear matter effects • Regeneration: Nbb ~ 1 for central PbPb canonical limit NY~ (Nbb)1 y

  17. 3.5 y(2S) in p/dA: A Sensitive Medium Probe d-Au (0.2TeV) p-Pb (5.02TeV) [ALICE] [PHENIX] - -EPS09 • noticeable y but little J/ysuppression, consistent with “comovers” • supports fireball formation with: tFBG(y) ~ 1  Gavg(y) ~ 50-100 MeV similar to thermal tFBG(J/y) << 1  Gavg(J/y) < 20 MeV widths at T 200MeV [Ferreiro ‘15] [Du et al ‘15]

  18. 5.) Summary • Heavy quarkonia: hard production but soft medium probe • Unique opportunity to unravel in-medium QCD force via thorough rooting in lattice QCD • Both regeneration (Y) and dissociation () provide tell-tale signatures of in-medium screening • Heavy-quark reaction rates rooted in open-HF phenomenology • Key roles also in pA: CNM effects (J/y, (1S)) + sensitive probes of putative medium (y(2S), (3S))

  19. 2.2 Quarkonium Width Comparisons Charmonium Bottomonium J/y (1S) melted • Fair agreement for J/y • Larger spread for  states • Binding energies differ (2S) melted

  20. q q 2.) Theoretical Tools • Statistical Hadronization model: • chem. equil. of charm hadrons • Transport Approaches • Boltzmann equat. • →Rate equation • Reaction Rate Gy “Weak” binding EB< mD “Strong” binding EB≥ T • gluo-dissosciation (“singlet-to-octet”) [Bhanot+Peskin’85, Brambilla et al’08, Liu et al‘13…] • “quasi-free”/ Landau damping [Grandchamp+RR‘02, Songetal’07, Laineetal‘07,…]

  21. 3.3 Properties of Charmonium Excess • excess concentrated at low pT • low-pT excess carries sizable v2 • systematic softening of J/y pT-spectra with increasing √s → nature of source changes [Tsinghua]

  22. 4.1 Charm Thermalization + J/y Regeneration → Softening of charm-quark spectra facilitates regeneration J/yEquilibrium Fraction Charm-Quark Diffusion Coeff. (Nyeq)off-c / (Nyeq)thermal-c 1-exp[-t /tceq] t /tceq T /Tc [Ko et al ‘12] [Prino+RR ‘16] • Charmonium phenomenology • favors tceq≤ 5 fm/c • (“strong”coupling) Ds = tceq T/mQ≤ (4-8) /(2pT)

  23. 4.2 Heavy-Quark Potential and (1S) Suppression Input “Potential” UQQ [TAMU] [Kent St] FQQ • (1S)suppression prefers “strong” (U) over “weak” (F) in-med. potential • role of regeneration for (1S), (2S) ?
