Electromagnetic field effects on Upsilon-meson dissociation in PbPb collisions at LHC energies
read the original abstract
We investigate the effect of the electromagnetic field generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions on the dissociation of $\Upsilon$ 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 $\Upsilon$ mesons embedded in the expanding QGP and its consequences on the $\Upsilon$ dissociation is made. The electromagnetic field effects prove to be negligible compared to the established strong-interaction suppression mechanisms.

Hadronic exceptional points
Imaginary magnetic fields induce exceptional points in neutral meson mass spectra computed via hadronic effective Lagrangian and constituent quark models, separating real and complex eigenvalue regimes.
