Comprehensive study of (S) production in Oxygen+Oxygen collisions at LHC
Sabin Thapa, Biaogang Wu, Ramona Vogt +1
We study bottomonium (S) production in collisions at ~TeV, including both cold nuclear-matter (CNM) effects and final-state interactions…
Charmonia at Finite Momentum and Spatial Correlators in Quark-Gluon Plasma
Thomas Hardin, Ralf Rapp
Spatial correlation functions of quarkonia in the quark-gluon plasma are available from finite- temperature lattice-QCD with good precision. However, their interpretation in terms…
Bottomonium transport in the sQGP at RHIC and the LHC
Biaogang Wu, Jacob Boyd, Ralf Rapp
Bottomonium transport is studied in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and the LHC by implementing a kinetic rate equation into (3+1)D viscous hydrodynamic simulations of an expanding qu…
Toponium Spectrum in the Complex-Energy Plane
Zhanduo Tang, Oliver Fast, Ralf Rapp
The electroweak decay width of the top quark of ~2 GeV is comparable to binding energies expected for the toponium system, raising the long-standing question of whether top and ant…
Coupled charm and charmonium transport in a strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma
Kaiyu Fu, Biaogang Wu, Ralf Rapp
The quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is a strongly coupled medium in which both open and hidden charm particles experience substantial nonperturbative interactions. This poses a major chal…
Open heavy-flavor transport and hadronization in heavy-ion collisions
Yu Fu, Tharun Krishna, Weiyao Ke +2
We develop a comprehensive model for heavy-quark evolution in a realistic QGP, from their production in the initial collision to hadronic freeze-out. Heavy-quark transport is descr…
Semiclassical treatment of bottomonium suppression and regeneration in collisions

We study bottomonium suppression in relative to collisions at center-of-mass energies of and 8.16~TeV. Specifically, we combine cold nucle…
Nonperturbative Heavy-Flavor Transport Approach for Hot QCD Matter
Tharun Krishna, Ralf Rapp, Yu Fu +2
The heavy charm and bottom quarks are unique probes of the transport properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and its hadronization in high-energy nuclear collisions. A key chall…
Bottomonium transport in a strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma
Biaogang Wu, Ralf Rapp
Quarkonium production in high-energy heavy-ion collisions remains a key probe of the quark-gluon plasma formed in these reactions, but the development of a fully integrated nonpert…
Quark Recombination
Rainer J. Fries, Vincenzo Greco, Ralf Rapp
Hadronization is a fundamental process occurring at a distance scale of about , hence within non-perturbative dynamics. In elementary collisions, li…
Non-perturbative quarkonium dissociation rates in strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma
Biaogang Wu, Zhanduo Tang, Ralf Rapp
Heavy quarks and quarkonia are versatile probes of the transport properties of the hot QCD medium produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions (URHICs). A robust description…
Quarkonium Spectroscopy in the Quark-Gluon Plasma
Zhanduo Tang, Biaogang Wu, Andrew Hanlon +3
The properties of bound states are fundamental to hadronic spectroscopy and play a central role in the transition from hadronic matter to a quark-gluon plasma (QGP). In a strongly…

Ralf Rapp
The electric conductivity, , is a fundamental transport coefficient of QCD matter that can be related to the zero-energy limit of the electromagnetic (EM) spectral func…
Charm and Bottom Hadrons in Hot Hadronic Matter
Santosh K. Das, Juan M. Torres-Rincon, Ralf Rapp
Heavy quarks, and the hadrons containing them, are excellent probes of the QCD medium formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, as they provide essential information on the trans…
