A QCD Calculation of the Interaction of Quarkonium with Nuclei
read the original abstract
The interaction of quarkonium with nuclei is studied in the $m_Q\rightarrow \infty$ limit of QCD, where the binding energy is found to be exactly computable. The dominant contribution to the interaction is from two-gluon operators. The forward matrix elements of these two-gluon operators can be determined from the QCD scale anomaly, and from deep inelastic scattering. We apply our results to the $\Upsilon$ and $J/\psi$, treating the $\qqbar$ interaction as purely Coulombic. We find the $\Upsilon$ binds in nuclear matter with a binding energy of a few $\mev$, while for the $J/\psi$ binding is of order 10 $\mev$. For the $J/\psi$ in particular we expect confinement effects to produce large corrections to this result.

Meson-Nucleus Bound States with Neural-Network Quantum States
Neural-network quantum states applied to HAL QCD meson-nucleon potentials predict bound states for phi at A>=2, J/psi at A>=4, and eta_c at A>=6, with binding energies from tens of MeV to sub-MeV scales.
