Quarkonia
The ALICE experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider allows the study of vector meson production in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions (UPC). Due to the strong electromagnetic fields gamma-gamma and gamma-nucleus processes can be studied.
We report the first results obtained at ALICE on the coherent J/psi photo-production cross section, a process sensitive to the gluon distribution of...

The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) has measured various quarkonium states via their decays into muon pairs in pp and PbPb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 2.76 TeV. Quarkonia are especially relevant for studying the quark-gluon plasma since they are produced at early times of the collision and propagate through the medium, mapping its evolution. The most recent results on the production of prompt...

I will review the effective field theory description of quarkonium interaction at finite temperature and its phenomenological implications.
