Investigation of suppression of $Υ(nS)$ in relativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies

The primary purpose of studying quarkonium production in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is to understand the properties of the quark-gluon plasma. At various collision systems, measurements of quarkonium states of different binding energies, such as $Υ(nS)$, can provide comprehensive information. A model study has been performed to investigate the modification of $Υ(nS)$ production in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=$ 5.02 TeV and Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=$ 200 GeV. The Monte-Carlo simulation study is performed with a publicly available hydrodynamic simulation package for the quark-gluon plasma medium and a theoretical calculation of temperature-dependent thermal width of $Υ(nS)$ considering the gluo-dissociation and inelastic parton scattering for dissociation inside the medium. In addition, we perform a systematic study with different descriptions of initial collision geometry and formation time of $Υ(nS)$ to investigate their impacts on yield modification. The model calculation with a varied parameter set can describe the experimental data of $Υ(nS)$ in Pb-Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV and $Υ(2S)$ in Au-Au collisions at 200 GeV but underestimates the modification of $Υ(1S)$ at the lower collision energy. The nuclear absorption mechanism is explored to understand the discrepancy between the data and simulation.

Model study on $Υ(nS)$ modification in small collision systems

Quarkonium production has been studied extensively in relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments to understand the properties of the quark gluon plasma. The experimental results on the yield modification in heavy-ion collisions relative to that in $p$+$p$ collisions can be described by several models considering dissociation and regeneration effects. A yield modification beyond initial-state effects has also been observed in small collision systems such as $p$+Au and $p$+Pb collisions, but it is still premature to claim any hot medium effect. A model study in various small collision systems such as $p$+$p$, $p$+Pb, $p$+O, and O+O collisions will help quantitatively understanding nuclear effects on the $Υ(nS)$ production. A theoretical calculation considering the gluo-dissociation and inelastic parton scattering and their inverse reaction reasonably describes the suppression of $Υ(1S)$ in Pb+Pb collisions. Based on this calculation, a Monte-Carlo simulation is developed to more realistically incorporate the medium produced in heavy-ion collisions with event-by-event initial collision geometry and hydrodynamic evolution. We extend this framework to small systems to study the medium effects. In this work, we quantify the nuclear modification factor of $Υ(nS)$ as a function of charged particle multiplicity ($dN_{ch}/dη$) and transverse momentum. We also calculate the elliptic flow of $Υ(nS)$ in small collision systems.
