We generalize known results for heavy quarkonium in a thermal bath to the case of a finite baryonic density, and provide a number of formulas for the energy shift and decay width that hold at weak coupling for sufficiently large temperature…

We consider the dissociation of heavy quarkonium in a medium close to thermal equilibrium but with a small momentum space anisotropy. Dissociation is defined to take place when the width of the ground state equals its binding energy. We…

We calculate the quarkonium dissociation rate in the P and CP-odd domains (bubbles) that were possibly created in heavy-ion collisions. In the presence of the magnetic field produced by the valence quarks of colliding ions, parity-odd…

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…

We examine three different ways a heavy quarkonium can dissociate at high temperatures. The heavy quarkonium can dissociate spontaneously when it becomes unbound at a temperature above its dissociation temperature. Following the recent work…
