Spin contribution to the dissociation of bound states in rotating medium in magnetic field

Abstract

Magneto-rotational dissociation is the decay, by the way of tunneling, of a rotating bound state in the magnetic field. The corresponding probability was recently computed in the quasi-classical approximation using the Imaginary Time Method and was shown to increase with the angular velocity and decrease with the magnetic field strength \cite{Tuchin:2021lxl}. This letter reports the calculation of the quantum correction to the dissociation probability associated with the spin of the tunneling particle. The quasi-classical motion of spin is described by the Bargmann--Michel--Telegdi equation in the rotating frame. It is shown that the spin contribution significantly increases the dissociation probability. Applications to the Quark-Gluon Plasma are touched upon.
