Entropic destruction of heavy quarkonium in a rotating hot and dense medium from holography*

Abstract

Previous studies have indicated that the peak of the quarkonium entropy at the deconfinement transition can be related to the entropic force which would induce the dissociation of heavy quarkonium. In this paper, we study the entropic force in a rotating hot and dense medium using AdS/CFT correspondence. It turns out that the inclusion of angular velocity increases the entropic force thus enhancing quarkonium dissociation, while chemical potential has the same effect. Furthermore, the results imply that the quarkonium dissociates easier in rotating medium compared to static case.
