QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 potential models vs lattice QCD • some features of quarkonia spectral functions agree BUT there are unreconciled inconsistencies • 1st analysis of correlators from potential models • our attempts to understand the discrepancies summary

Satz 1986 • in quark-gluon plasma the color Coulomb-force between heavy Q and Q gets Debye-screened Rscreening < RQQquarkonium dissociates • sequential suppression F. Karsch, M. Mehr, H. Satz 1988 • modification of quarkonia properties with temperature could tell about deconfinement it all started in 1986

QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 • At what temperature do heavy quark bound states disappear? • Can modification of quarkonia properties be understood via a temperature-dependent screened potential? • If yes, what is the potential? • If not, how can we explain quarkonium dissociation? What is the mechanism behind quarkonia melting?
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 heavy Q-Q interactions are mediated by a potential T = 0 V(r) confined • success for spectroscopy • lattice confirmed • obtainable from QCD deconfined J/ T > Tc we don’t know r assume a temperature-dependent potential V(r,T) & solve Schrödinger’s equation to obtain properties of QQ potential MODEL

Alberico et al 2005 • screened Cornell potential: • fitted lattice internal energy: • Wong potential: mixture of lattice internal & free energy Common: all could keep the J/ up to 1.5 Tc Is this enough to be consistent with lattice?

QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 the c0 is gone just above Tc increase in correlator due to continuum qualitative agreement with lattice ÁM, P. Petreczky 2005 S. Datta et al 2004 c0correlator
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 • c correlator does not agree with lattice increase due to continuum, decrease due to amplitude reduction • correlator implies change in spectral function • disagrees with lattice feature for all screened potentials ÁM, P. Petreczky 2005 S. Datta et al 2004 ccorrelator
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 • no assumption for spectral function needed • drastic change in 1S mass & amplitude • inconsistent with lattice • even though 1S survives the spectral function is strongly modified S-wave lattice internal energy A.

QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 • inconsistency with lattice data is even worse how could we - can we - produce agreement with lattice? Wong potential A. Jakovác et al 2006 ÁM, P. Petreczky hep-ph/0606053 Green’s fct. cont.
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 ÁM hep-ph/0606124 no temperature-dependent screening • no modification of the 1S properties - use PDG • melting of 2S and 3S states • melting of the 1P state • continuum threshold s0 reduction T = 0 T Tc s0 1P s0 1S s0 s0 2S 3S instead consider a toy model
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 c0 c ÁM 2006 • choice of s0 can reproduce lattice correlators • c unchanged & c0 increased • compensate for the melting of higher excited states above Tc with the decrease of the threshold the toy model
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 • maybe works BUT note: “screened” not screened • screening might not be the mechanism governing quarkonia melting tscreening>tQQ “screened” Cornell potential ÁM, P. Petreczky, J. Casalderrey-Solana, in prep. with nonrelativistic Green’s fct.
QWG Meeting BNL June 27-30 06 • temperature-dependent screened potentials have problems even though 1S can survive and 1P melts • two different analysis of spectral functions and correlators not consistent with lattice QCD • medium modification cannot be described by a simple Debye screening picture • gluo-dissociation effect finite width Green’s fct current investigation conclusion
