Description

After surveying the distinguishing features of quarkonia, I discuss their behavior in a quark-gluon plasma, as given by effective field theory and potential models as well as by lattice QCD. This is then used to discuss sequential quarkonium suppression in nuclear collisions. Finally I consider the possibility of statistical formation of charmonia at hadronization, together with predictions for LHC measurements as resulting from the two scenarios.
