Abstract

We investigate the non-trivial 3-momentum effects on the masses of heavy quarkonium states that are moving in a hot medium using QCD sum rules. For all charmonium states, we observe a negative mass shift near TcT_c that is less than 3%\% at a momentum of 1GeV\rm{GeV}. Specifically, we first investigate the difference between the longitudinal and transverse modes of both J/ψJ/\psi and χc1\chi_{c1}. We find that the transverse mode of the J/ψJ/\psi experiences larger modification than the longitudinal mode, while the χc1\chi_{c1} has the opposite behavior. By comparing the ηc\eta_c and χc0\chi_{c0}, and also the unpolarized J/ψJ/\psi and χc1\chi_{c1}, we recognize that the P-wave particles have stronger momentum dependencies on their masses than the S-wave ones. We also find Υ\Upsilon(1S) has negligible 3-momentum dependence compared to the charmonium states, e.g. less than 0.01%\% even at 1.4TcT_c and at a momentum of 4GeV\rm{GeV}.
