Quarkonium production and suppression: Theory

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2021-02-03 v1

Abstract

Heavy quarkonium theory has seen significant progress over the past years. Not only has the community steadily improved the understanding of fully equilibrated quarkonium using first principles lattice QCD studies, but it has taken major steps towards developing a genuine dynamical understanding of quark-antiquark pairs immersed in a hot medium by embracing the paradigm of open quantum systems. We review recent developments, placing an emphasis on quarkonium real-time dynamics.
