Abstract

It is important to understand the strong external magnetic field generated at the very beginning of heavy ion collisions. We study the effect of the magnetic field on the anisotropic charmonium formation in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC energy. The time dependent Schrödinger equation is employed to describe the motion of cc¯ pairs. We compare our model prediction of the non-collective anisotropic parameter v2 of J/ψ with CMS data at high transverse momentum.

  • We study the effect of the magnetic field on the anisotropic charmonium formation in Pb + Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energy

  • When the magnetic field survives in the hot medium, the interaction between the field and the medium may change the fundamental QCD topological structures [9] such as the chiral magnetic effect [10,11,12,13], the chiral magnetic wave [14,15,16], the chiral separation effect [13,17,18], the chiral vortical effect [17,19], the chiral electric separation effect [20], and the enhancement of elliptic flow of charged particles [21,22,23]
