I compute the thermal suppression of the Upsilon(1s) and chi_b1 states in sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions. Using the suppression of each of these states I estimate the total R_AA for the Upsilon(1s) state as a function of centrality,…

We substantially refine our previously developed model for the suppression of Upsilon mesons in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formed in 2.76 TeV PbPb collisions at the LHC. It accounts for gluodissociation of the six bottomium states Y(nS),…
We use our mixed hybrid model for the $\Psi(2S)$ state to estimate $\Psi(2S)$ to $J/\Psi(1S)$ suppression in p-Pb collisions, and the $\Upsilon(3S)$ state to estimate $\Upsilon(3S)$ to $\Upsilon(1S)$ suppression in Pb-Pb collisions, and…

In order to disentangle CNM effects from the ``hot'' QGP effects, quarkonium production is studied in p--Pb collisions in which QGP formation is not expected. ALICE has measured the $\Upsilon$ production in p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm…
