Abstract
We study the properties of heavy quarkonia in a quark gluon plasma in the presence of bulk viscous effects. Within the hard thermal loop approximation at one-loop, the dielectric permittivity of a quark gluon plasma is computed, where the bulk viscous effect enters through the deformation of the distribution functions of thermal quarks and gluons. Based on the modified dielectric permittivity, we compute the in-medium heavy quark potential, that includes non-pertubative string-like terms as well as the perturbative Coulombic term. We discuss how the bulk viscous effect modify the real and imaginary parts of the in-medium potential. Several prescriptions are examined as to how to include the string-like non-perturbative potentials. Using the deformed potential, we compute the wave functions, binding energies, and decay widths of heavy quarkonia in a bulk viscous medium, and study their sensitivity to the strength of the bulk viscous effect. An estimate of the melting temperatures is given.
