Dissociation of a Boosted Quarkonium in Quark Gluon Plasma

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

I consider the dissociation of a boosted quarkonium in a quark-gluon plasma. This dissociation is due to absorption of a thermal gluon. I discuss the dissociation in terms of the velocity of the quarkonium and the temperature of the quark-gluon plasma. I compare this dissociation rate to the one calculated without including the velocity of the quarkonium.
