Electromagnetic field effects on $\Upsilon$ϒ-meson dissociation in PbPb collisions at LHC energies

Abstract.We investigate the effect of the electromagnetic field generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions on the dissociation of $\Upsilon$ϒ mesons. The electromagnetic field is calculated using a simple model which characterizes the emerging quark-gluon plasma (QGP) by its conductivity only. A numerical estimate of the field strength experienced by $\Upsilon$ϒ mesons embedded in the expanding QGP and its consequences on the $\Upsilon$ϒ dissociation is made. The electromagnetic field effects prove to be negligible compared to the established strong-interaction suppression mechanisms.
