We illustrate how to apply modern effective field theory techniques and dimensional regularization to factorise the various scales which appear in QED bound states at finite temperature. We focus here on the muonic hydrogen atom. Vacuum polarization effects make the physics of this atom at finite temperature very close to that of heavy quarkonium states. We comment on the implications of our results for these states in the quark gluon plasma. In particular, we estimate the effects of a finite charm quark mass in the dissociation temperature of bottomonium.

    hep-lat 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Adjoint chromoelectric correlators relevant for quarkonium dynamics are calculated in quenched lattice QCD and found to equal the fundamental correlator times Casimir factors, confirming leading-order relations nonper...

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Debye mass resummation reduces bound-state dark matter depletion by up to a factor of two relative to fixed-order NLO, changing relic abundance predictions by a few percent.
