The objective of this paper is to assess the current theoretical understanding of the extensive set of quarkonium observables (for both charmonia and bottomonia) that have been attained in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions over two…

This summary is an attempt to overview the wealth of new results and ideas in quarkonium physics presented at the Seattle Workshop.

We have investigated the spectra of light-heavy quarkonia with the use of a quantum-chromodynamic potential model which is similar to that used earlier for the heavy quarkonia. An essential feature of our treatment is the inclusion of the…

The effective field theory approach allows a rigorous disentangling of high and low energy effects in the heavy quarkonium dynamics. Focusing in particular on the spectrum, we describe the nature of the non-perturbative effects and discuss…

We summarise the perspectives on heavy-quarkonium production at the LHC, both for proton-proton and heavy-ion runs, as emanating from the round table held at the HLPW 2008 Conference. The main topics are: present experimental and…

In order to understand the experimental data on heavy quarkonium production in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC it is necessary (though not sufficient) to pinpoint the properties of heavy $Q\bar{Q}$ bound states in the deconfined…

Leveraging high-precision lattice QCD data on the equation of state and baryon number susceptibility at vanishing chemical potential, we construct a Bayesian holographic QCD model and systematically analyze the thermodynamic properties of…

In this report, we present an experimental overview of quarkonium results obtained in nucleus-nucleus collisions, with a focus on the data collected at the LHC. We discuss the current understanding of charmonium and bottomonium behavior in…

I review heavy quarkonium physics in view of recent experimental results. In particular, I discuss new results on spin singlet states, photon and hadronic transitions, D-states and discovery of yet unexplained narrow X(3872) state.
