This is a plenary talk given at Quark Matter 2025, summarizing recent theoretical developments for the understanding of quarkonium production in relativistic heavy ion collisions a…
Quarkonia Theory: From Open Quantum System to Classical Transport
Xiaojun Yao
This is a theoretical overview of quarkonium production in relativistic heavy ion collisions given for the Hard Probes 2024 conference in Nagasaki. The talk focuses on the applicat…
Quarkonium suppression in strongly coupled plasmas
Bruno Scheihing-Hitschfeld, Xiaojun Yao
Suppression of open heavy quarks and quarkonia in heavy-ion collisions are among the most informative probes of quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Interpreting the full wealth of data obtai…
Recent Developments in Quarkonium as an Open Quantum System in Quark-Gluon Plasma
Bruno Scheihing Hitschfeld, Xiaojun Yao
We review recent progress in understanding quarkonium dynamics inside the quark-gluon plasma as an open quantum system with a focus on the definition and nonperturbative calculatio…
