Relativistic description of J/\psi dissociation in hot matter

Abstract

The mass spectra and binding radii of heavy quark bound states are studied on the basis of the reduced Bethe-Salpeter equation. The critical values of screening masses for $c\bar{c}$ and $b\bar{b}$ bound states at a finite temperature are obtained and compared with the previous results given by non-relativistic models.Comment: 13 latex pages, 2 figure
