Drag force near the QCD critical point
Yukinao Akamatsu, Masayuki Asakawa
We discuss how heavy quark dynamics is affected by the critical fluctuations near the QCD critical point at finite temperature and density. We find that the heavy quark momentum di…
Simulation of Lindblad equations for quarkonium in the quark-gluon plasma
Takahiro Miura, Yukinao Akamatsu, Masayuki Asakawa +1
We study the properties of the Lindbladian quantum mechanical evolution of quarkonia with non-Abelian charges (color-singlet and octet) in the quark-gluon plasma. We confirm that h…
Dynamics of in-medium quarkonia in SU(3) and SU(2) gauge theories
Yukinao Akamatsu, Masayuki Asakawa, Shiori Kajimoto
Decoherence dynamics of quarkonia is studied in the high-temperature deconfined phase of SU() gauge theories. In particular, we analyze the symmetry properties of SU() st…
Quarkonium in Quark-Gluon Plasma: Open Quantum System Approaches Re-examined
Yukinao Akamatsu
Dissociation of quarkonium in quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is a long standing topic in relativistic heavy-ion collisions because it has been believed to signal one of the fundamental n…
Approach to thermalization and hydrodynamics
Yukinao Akamatsu
I review recent progress in thermalization in heavy-ion collisions, with particular emphasis on hydrodynamic attractor, and also report recent progress in hydrodynamic fluctuations…
Quantum Brownian motion of a heavy quark pair in the quark-gluon plasma
Takahiro Miura, Yukinao Akamatsu, Masayuki Asakawa +1
In this paper we study the real-time evolution of heavy quarkonium in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) on the basis of the open quantum systems approach. In particular, we shed light o…
