Electromagnetic field effects on ${\rm Y}$-meson dissociation in PbPb collisions at LHC energies

Abstract

We investigate the effect of the electromagnetic field generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions on the dissociation of ${\rm Y}$ mesons. The electromagnetic field is calculated using a simple model which characterizes the emerging quark-gluon plasma (QGP) by its conductivity only. A numerical estimate of the field strength experienced by ${\rm Y}$ mesons embedded in the expanding QGP and its consequences on the ${\rm Y}$ dissociation is made. The electromagnetic field effects prove to be negligible compared to the established strong-interaction suppression mechanisms.
