One of the challenges in relating experimental measurements of the suppression in the number of J/\psi mesons produced in heavy ion collisions to lattice QCD calculations is that whereas the lattice calculations treat J/\psi mesons at rest, in a heavy ion collision a c\bar c pair can have a significant velocity with respect to the hot fluid produced in the collision. The putative J/\psi finds itself in a hot wind. We present the first rigorous non-perturbative calculation of the consequences of a wind velocity v on the screening length L_s for a heavy quark-antiquark pair in hot N=4 supersymmetric QCD. We find L_s(v,T) = f(v)[1-v^2]^{1/4}/\pi T with f(v) only mildly dependent on v and the wind direction. This L_s(v,T)\sim L_s(0,T)/\sqrt{\gamma} velocity scaling, if realized in QCD, provides a significant additional source of J/\Psi suppression at transverse momenta which are high but within experimental reach.

  1. Strongly Coupled Soft Functions

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The cusp anomalous dimension at strong coupling is obtained for all rapidity separations from two competing string saddles, and the transversely-separated two-cusp Wilson loop scales as (b_perp^2 Lambda^2)^{-Re Gamma_cusp}.

  2. Modified Coherence and the Transverse Extent of Jets

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using wave-packets and a modified parton shower, the authors show that jets are transversely broad and derive a gluon-TMDPDF-based relation in which the jet transport coefficient qhat weakens with increasing parton vi...

  3. Imaginary potential and thermal width in the spinning black hole background from holography

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    In the planar limit of the Myers-Perry black hole, increasing the boost parameter makes the imaginary quarkonium potential appear at smaller separations and enlarges the thermal width, most strongly for transverse pai...
