We present a lattice QCD study of dilepton production in charmonium transitions, specifically focusing on the $1^{+-} \to 0^{-+}$ and $1^{++} \to 1^{--}$ processes: $h_c \to \eta_c \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $\chi_{c1} \to J/\psi \ell^+ \ell^-$,…

We present lattice non-relativistic QCD calculations of bottomonium correlation functions at temperatures $T \simeq 150-350$ MeV. The correlation functions were computed using extended bottomonium operators, and on background gauge-field…

We evaluate for the first time the $\eta^\prime p$ femtoscopic correlation function to study the $\eta^\prime N$ interaction. We find it extremely sensitive to the value of the $\eta^\prime p$ scattering length, for which at present there…
Dissociation temperatures of J/\psi, \psi', and \chi_c states play key roles in the sequential J/\psi suppression scenario for high energy heavy ion collisions. We report on a study of charmonium dissociation temperatures in quenched…
Charmonium dissociation cross sections due to flavor-exchange charmonium-baryon scattering are computed in the constituent quark model. We present results for inelastic $J/\psi N$ and $\eta_c N$ scattering amplitudes and cross sections into…
The computational cost required to calculate nuclear correlation functions grows factorially in the number of quarks, making the study of large nuclei inaccessible to ab initio study using lattice QCD at the present time. However, the…

We build a "bottom-up" holographic model of charmonium by matching the essential spectral data. We argue that this data must include not only the masses but also the decay constants of the J/psi and psi' mesons. Relative to the "soft-wall"…
