Heavy quarkonia in a baryon asymmetric strongly magnetized hot quark matter
Abstract
Recently there is a resurrection in the study of heavy quark bound states in a hot and baryonless matter with an ambient magnetic field but the matter produced at heavy-ion collider experiments is not perfectly baryonless, so we wish to explore the effect of small baryon asymmetry on the properties of heavy quarkonia immersed in a strongly magnetized hot quark matter. Therefore, we have first revisited the structure of gluon self-energy tensor in the above environment to compute the resummed propagator for gluons. This resummed propagator embodies the properties of medium, which gets translated into the (complex) potential between and placed in the medium. We observe that the baryon asymmetry makes the real-part of potential slightly more attractive and weakens the imaginary-part. This opposing effects thus lead to the enhancement of binding energies and the reduction of thermal widths of ground states, respectively. Finally, the properties of quarkonia thus deciphered facilitates to compute the dissociation points of and , which are found to have slightly larger values in the presence of baryon asymmetry. For example, is dissociated at , , and , whereas is dissociated at , and , for and MeV, respectively. This observation prevents early dissociation of quarkonia in the matter produced at ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions with a small net baryon number, compared to the ideal baryonless matter.
