## Abstract

TheN-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation has been solved using the analytical exact iteration method (AEIM), in which the Cornell potential is generalized to finite temperature and chemical potential. The energy eigenvalues have been calculated in theN-dimensional space for any state. The present results have been applied for studying quarkonium properties such as charmonium and bottomonium masses at finite temperature and quark chemical potential. The binding energies and the mass spectra of heavy quarkonia are studied in theN-dimensional space. The dissociation temperatures for different states of heavy quarkonia are calculated in the three-dimensional space. The influence of dimensionality number (N) has been discussed on the dissociation temperatures. In addition, the energy eigenvalues are only valid for nonzero temperature at any value of quark chemical potential. A comparison is studied with other recent works. We conclude that the AEIM succeeds in predicting the heavy quarkonium at finite temperature and quark chemical potential in comparison with recent works.

## 1. Introduction

The solution of the radial Schrödinger equation with spherically symmetric potentials has vital applications in different fields of physics such as atoms, molecules, hadronic spectroscopy, and high energy physics. The Schrödinger equation has been solved by operator algebraic method [1], power series method [2, 3], and path integral method [4], in addition to quasi-linearization method (QLM) [5], point canonical transformation (PCT) [6], Hill determinant method [7], and the conventional series solution method [8]. Recently, most of the theoretical studies have been developed to study the solutions of radial Schrödinger equation in the higher dimensions. These studies are general and one can directly obtain the results in the lower dimensions [9–23]. The N-dimensional Schrödinger equation has been solved by various methods as the Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method [9–12], asymptotic iteration method (AIM) [13], Laplace Transform method [14, 15], supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSQM) [16], power series technique [17], Pekeris type approximation [18], and the analytical exact iteration method (AEIM) [19].TheN-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation has been solved for different types of spherical symmetric potentials as Coulomb potential [15], pseudo-harmonic potential [20], Mie-type potential [21], energy-dependent potential [11], Kratzer potential [22], and Cornell potential type [13, 23] that consists of the Coulomb term and the linear term, anharmonic potential [14], the Cornell potential with harmonic oscillator potential [12], and the extended Cornell potential [19].The solution of Schrödinger equation has been used in different studies to describe the properties of heavy-quarkonium systems at finite temperature. Many efforts have been devoted to calculating the mass spectra of charmonium and bottomonium mesons and determining the binding energy and the dissociation temperatures of heavy quarkonia. In [24, 25], the authors have calculated the dissociation rates of quarkonium ground states by tunneling and direct thermal activation to the continuum and the binding energies and scattering phase shifts for the lowest eigenstates in the charmonium and bottomonium systems in hot gluon plasma. In [26, 27], the deconfinement and properties of the resulting quark-gluon plasma (QGP) have been investigated by studying the medium behavior of heavy-quark bound states in statistical quantum chromodynamics and the spectral analysis of quarkonium states in a hot medium of deconfined quarks and gluons and the thermal properties of QGP are discussed. In [28–30], the authors have solved the Schrödinger equation at finite temperature for the charmonium and bottomonium states by employing an effective temperature dependent potential given by a linear combination of the color singlet free and internal energies and discussed the quarkonium spectral functions in a quark-gluon plasma. The dissociation of quarkonia has been studied by correcting the full Cornell potential through the hard-loop resumed gluon propagator and the hard thermal loop (HTL) approximation [31, 32]. Moreover, the binding energies of the heavy quarkonia states are studied in detail in [33, 34].At finite temperature and chemical potential, Vija and Thoma [35] have extended the effective perturbation theory for gauge theories at finite temperature and chemical potential for studying the collisional energy loss of heavy quarks in QGP. In [36, 37], the authors have generalized a thermodynamic quasi-particle description of deconfined matter to finite chemical potential and analyzed the response of color singlet and color averaged heavy-quark free energies to a nonvanishing baryon chemical potential. On the same hand, the effect of chemical potential is studied on the photon production of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) plasma, dissipative hydrodynamic effects on QGP, and thermodynamic properties of the QGP [38–42] by using different methods. At finite chemical potential and small temperature region, the dissociation of quarkonia states has been studied in a deconfined medium of quarks and gluons in [43].The aim of this work is to find the analytic solution of theN-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation with generalized Cornell potential at finite temperature and chemical potential using the analytical exact iteration method (AEIM) to obtain the energy eigenvalues, where the energy eigenvalues are only valid for nonzero temperature for any value of quark chemical potential. So far no attempt has been made to solve theN-dimensional radial Schrödinger when finite temperature and chemical potential are included by using AEIM. In addition, the application of present results on quarkonium properties has been investigated such as the mass spectra of heavy quarkonium and the dissociation temperature for different states of heavy quarkonia. The influence of the dimensionality number, which is not considered in many recent works, has been investigated on the binding energy and the dissociation temperature at finite temperature and chemical potential.The paper is organized as follows: the background of the study of previous efforts is introduced in Section1. In Section 2, the analytic solution of the N-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation is derived. In Section 3, the results are discussed. In Section 4, summary and conclusion are presented.


## 2. Analytic Solution of theN-Dimensional Radial Schrödinger Equation with the Cornell Potential at Finite Temperature and Chemical Potential

TheN-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation for two particles interacting via a spherically symmetric potential takes the following form [14, 44]:(1)d2dr2+N-1rddr-ll+N-2r2+2μQQ-Enl-Urψr=0,where l,   N, and μQQ- are the angular quantum number, the dimensional number, and reduced mass of the two particles μQQ-=mQmQ-/mQ+mQ-, respectively.Insertingψr=Rr/rN-1/2 in (1), we obtain(2)d2dr2-λ2-1/4r2+2μQQ-Enl-UrRr=0,with   λ=l+N-2/2, where Ur is the Cornell potential that takes the following form [45]:(3)Ur=σr-αsr,with σ=0.192 GeV2 and αs=0.471. The potential is modified in QGP to study the binding energy and dissociation temperature by including Debye screening mass as follows [45, 46]:(4)Ur,mD=σmD1-e-mDT,μr-αsre-mDT,μr,where mD(T,μ) is the Debye screening mass at finite temperature and quark chemical potential [37]:(5)mDT,μ=gTTNc3+Nf61+3Nf2Nc+Nfπ2μT2,where Nf is the number of quark flavors, Nc is the number of colors, and gT is the QCD coupling constant at finite temperature [47]:(6)gT=111Nc-2NflogT2/ΛQCD2.Using e-mDT,μr=∑k=0∞-mDT,μrk/k! in (4) with neglecting the higher orders at mDT,μr≪1, thus (4) takes the following form:(7)Vr=-ar2+br+c-dr,where (8)a=12σmDT,μ,b=122σ-αsmDT,μ2,c=αsmDT,μ,d=αs.Substituting (7) into (2), we obtain (9)R′′r=-εnl+a1r2+b1r+c1-d1r+λ2-1/4r2Rr,where (10)εnl=2μQQ-Enl,a1=-2μQQ-a,b1=2μQQ-b,c1=2μQQ-c,d1=2μQQ-d.The analytical exact iteration method (AEIM) requires the following ansatz for the wave function as in [48–50]:(11)Rr=fnrexp⁡glr,where(12)fnr=1,n=0∏i=1nr-αinn=1,2,3,…,(13)glr=-12αr2-βr+δln⁡r,α>0,β>0.From (11), we obtain(14)Rnl′′r=gl′′r+gl′2r+fn′′r+2gl′rfn′rfnrRnlr.By comparing (9) and (14), we obtain (15)a1r2+b1r+c1-d1r+λ2-1/4r2-εnl=gl′′r+gl′2r+fn′′r+2gl′rfn′rfnr.At (n=0), substituting (12) and (13) into (15) gives(16)a1r2+b1r+c1-d1r+λ2-1/4r2-ε0l=α2r2+2αβr-α1+2δ+β2-2βδr+δδ-1r2.By comparing the corresponding powers ofron both sides of (16), one obtains(17a)α=a1,(17b)β=b12a1,(17c)d1=2βδ,(17d)δδ+1=λ2-14⟹δ=121±2λ,(17e)ε0l=α1+2δ+c1-β2.From (17a)–(17e) and (10), by taking the positive sign in (17d), then the ground state energy is(18)E0l=a2μQQ-N+2l+c-b24a.For the first node (n=1), we use the functions f1r=r-α11 and gl(r) from (13). Equation (15) takes the following form:(19)a1r2+b1r+c1-d1r+λ2-1/4r2-ε1l=α2r2+2αβr-α1+2δ+1+β2-2βδ+1+αα11r+δδ-1r2.Then, the relations between the parameters of the potential and the coefficients α,β,δ, and α11 are given by(20a)α=a1,(20b)β=b12a1,(20c)d1=2βδ+1,(20d)δ=121±2λ,(20e)ε1l=α1+2δ+1+c1-β2,(20f)d1-2βδ+1=2αα11,(20g)d1-2βδα11=2δ.Using (20a)–(20g) and (10), we obtain the formula E1l as(21)E1l=a2μQQ-N+2l+2+c-b24a.For the second node (n=2), we use f2r=r-α12r-α22 and gl(r) from (13) to solve (15) which gives(22)a1r2+b1r+c1-d1r+λ2-1/4r2-ε2l=α2r2+2αβr-α1+2δ+2+β2-2βδ+2+αα12+α22r+δδ-1r2.Thus, the relations between the coefficients α,β,δ,α12, and α22 are given by(23a)α=a1,(23b)β=b12a1,(23c)δ=121±2λ,(23d)ε2l=α1+2δ+2+c1-β2,(23e)d1-2βδ+2=2αα12+α22,(23f)d1-2βδα12α22=2δα12+α22,(23g)d1-2βδ+1α12+α22=4αα12α22+22δ+1.Hence, the formula E2l is given by(24)E2l=a2μQQ-N+2l+4+c-b24a.Then, the iteration method is repeated many times. Therefore, the exact energy formula for any state in theN-dimensional space is written as(25)EnlN=a2μQQ-N+2l+2n+c-b24a,n=0,1,2,….According to (8), we note that (25) is only valid for finite temperature, since, at T=0, the parameter a equals zero. Therefore, the energy eigenvalues diverge at this case.


## 3. Discussion of Results

In the first part of this section, we compare between the exact potentialUr,T,μ in (4) and the approximate potential Vr,T,μ in (7) for different values of chemical potential and temperature.In Figure1, the exact U(r,T,μ) and the approximate potential V(r,T,μ) are plotted for different values of chemical potentials. We note that there is a good qualitative agreement between exact potential and approximate potential. In Figure 2, we note a good qualitative agreement between two potentials. By increasing temperature, the positive part of two potentials is reduced. Thus, the present potential gives a good accuracy in comparison with original potential.Figure 1

### 3.1. Binding Energy and Heavy-Quarkonium Mass in theN-Dimensional Space

In this subsection, the binding energy and the heavy-quarkonium mass are calculated such as charmonium and bottomonium mesons in theN-dimensional space for any state at finite temperature and chemical potential.Substituting (8) into (25), therefore the binding energies for the different states of heavy-quarkonium meson at finite temperature and chemical potential take the form(26)EbinT,μ=αsmDT,μ+σmDT,μ4μQQ-2n+2l+N-2σ-αsmD2T,μ28σmDT,μ,where μQQ-=mc/2 for charmonium and μQQ-=mb/2 for bottomonium. At zero temperature, we note that Debye mass vanishes. Therefore, energy eigenvalue in (26) is divergent. Thus, (26) is valid only at finite temperature. The behavior of the binding energy for the different states of heavy-quarkonium meson is shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6.Figure 4

(b)Figures4 and 5 show the behavior of the binding energy of heavy quarkonia as a function of temperature (in units of Tc) for 1S and 1P states, respectively.We note that the binding energy becomes weaker with increasing temperature. The dependence of the binding energy on the temperature shows a qualitative agreement with similar results in [25, 29–33] and becomes stronger with the chemical potential. Figure 6 shows the dependence of the binding energy of J/ψ and Υ states on the number of dimensions. The binding energy of J/ψ and Υ states increases with the increasing dimensionality number. In Figure 7, the binding energy of charmonium and bottomonium mesons is plotted in the 3-dimensional space. We note that the binding energy increases with increasing finite temperature and chemical potential. Therefore, the effect of finite temperature is stronger than the effect of chemical potential.Figure 7

(b)Now, for calculating quarkonium mass, we use the following relation [13]:(27)M=2mQ+EnlN.Substituting (26) into (27), thus the mass spectra for the different states are a function of temperature and chemical potential that takes the following form:(28)MQ=2mQ+αsmDT,μ+σmDT,μ4μQQ-2n+2l+N-2σ-αsmD2T,μ28σmDT,μ,where MQ is quarkonium mass Q=b,c for bottomonium and charmonium.In Figure8, quarkonium mass is plotted as a function of temperature for1S and1P states, bottomonium in (a) and charmonium in (b). We see that the mass spectra decrease with increasing temperature. The values of 1P state are larger than the values of 1S state. By increasing chemical potential, the quarkonium mass shifts to larger values.Figure 8

(b)In Figures9 and 10, we study the behavior of the quarkonium mass as a function of temperature (in units of Tc) for 1S and 1P states for different values of chemical potential using two values of quark mass. We noted that the increasing quark mass leads to increasing quarkonium mass as in [28]. In the 1S state, the charmonium mass increases from Mc=3.460 GeV to Mc=3.825 GeV at zero chemical potential. At finite chemical potential (μ=0.6 GeV), charmonium mass increases from Mc=3.588 GeV to Mc=3.950 GeV.Figure 9

### 3.2. Dissociation Temperature of Heavy Quarkonia in theN-Dimensional Space

There are a lot of earlier studies for determining the dissociation temperatures for different states of heavy quarkonia. In [24], the authors have calculated the dissociation temperature of the heavy quarkonia from the thermal width ΓT. In [29], authors have put a conservative condition for the dissociation ΓT>2Ebin. In [30], the authors have calculated the upper bound and the lower bound of the dissociation temperature (TD) by the condition for the dissociation: Ebin=TD and Ebin=3TD, respectively. In [43], the authors have obtained the dissociation temperature of quarkonia when the binding energies are of the order of the baryon chemical potential.We calculate the dissociation temperature for different states of heavy quarkonia from the conditionEbin=0, since the state is dissociated when its binding energy vanished as in [27].In Table1, we have calculated the dissociation temperature for the ground state and the first excited states of cc- and bb- at N=3 and also at higher dimensional space atN = 4 andN = 5 when chemical potential vanishes. It is noted from Table 1 that the states dissociate around 1.3Tc. The values of J/ψ and Υ′ quantitatively agree with the values recently reported by Agotiya et al. [30]. Υ gives smaller value in comparison with [30] which equals 1.7Tc. Also, the value of Υ is in agreement with that in [53] which gives the dissociation temperature of the 1S bottomoniumTable 1

We note from Table 1 that increasing dimensionality number leads to increasing dissociation temperature at zero chemical potential.In Table2, the dissociation temperatures for different states of heavy-quarkonium mesons have been obtained at finite chemical potential (μ=600 MeV) and the critical temperature (Tc=185 MeV). One notes that increasing dimensional number leads to a small increase in the dissociation temperatures. In Table 3, by increasing chemical potential μ=900 MeV, there is an important observation: an increase in the value of quark chemical potential increases the value of dissociation temperatures. Therefore, the finite chemical and dimensional number play an important role in changing dissociation temperatures which are not taken into account in many previous works such as [30, 53].Table 2

## 3.1. Binding Energy and Heavy-Quarkonium Mass in theN-Dimensional Space

In this subsection, the binding energy and the heavy-quarkonium mass are calculated such as charmonium and bottomonium mesons in theN-dimensional space for any state at finite temperature and chemical potential.Substituting (8) into (25), therefore the binding energies for the different states of heavy-quarkonium meson at finite temperature and chemical potential take the form(26)EbinT,μ=αsmDT,μ+σmDT,μ4μQQ-2n+2l+N-2σ-αsmD2T,μ28σmDT,μ,where μQQ-=mc/2 for charmonium and μQQ-=mb/2 for bottomonium. At zero temperature, we note that Debye mass vanishes. Therefore, energy eigenvalue in (26) is divergent. Thus, (26) is valid only at finite temperature. The behavior of the binding energy for the different states of heavy-quarkonium meson is shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6.Figure 4

(b)Figures4 and 5 show the behavior of the binding energy of heavy quarkonia as a function of temperature (in units of Tc) for 1S and 1P states, respectively.We note that the binding energy becomes weaker with increasing temperature. The dependence of the binding energy on the temperature shows a qualitative agreement with similar results in [25, 29–33] and becomes stronger with the chemical potential. Figure 6 shows the dependence of the binding energy of J/ψ and Υ states on the number of dimensions. The binding energy of J/ψ and Υ states increases with the increasing dimensionality number. In Figure 7, the binding energy of charmonium and bottomonium mesons is plotted in the 3-dimensional space. We note that the binding energy increases with increasing finite temperature and chemical potential. Therefore, the effect of finite temperature is stronger than the effect of chemical potential.Figure 7

(b)Now, for calculating quarkonium mass, we use the following relation [13]:(27)M=2mQ+EnlN.Substituting (26) into (27), thus the mass spectra for the different states are a function of temperature and chemical potential that takes the following form:(28)MQ=2mQ+αsmDT,μ+σmDT,μ4μQQ-2n+2l+N-2σ-αsmD2T,μ28σmDT,μ,where MQ is quarkonium mass Q=b,c for bottomonium and charmonium.In Figure8, quarkonium mass is plotted as a function of temperature for1S and1P states, bottomonium in (a) and charmonium in (b). We see that the mass spectra decrease with increasing temperature. The values of 1P state are larger than the values of 1S state. By increasing chemical potential, the quarkonium mass shifts to larger values.Figure 8

(b)In Figures9 and 10, we study the behavior of the quarkonium mass as a function of temperature (in units of Tc) for 1S and 1P states for different values of chemical potential using two values of quark mass. We noted that the increasing quark mass leads to increasing quarkonium mass as in [28]. In the 1S state, the charmonium mass increases from Mc=3.460 GeV to Mc=3.825 GeV at zero chemical potential. At finite chemical potential (μ=0.6 GeV), charmonium mass increases from Mc=3.588 GeV to Mc=3.950 GeV.Figure 9

## 3.2. Dissociation Temperature of Heavy Quarkonia in theN-Dimensional Space

There are a lot of earlier studies for determining the dissociation temperatures for different states of heavy quarkonia. In [24], the authors have calculated the dissociation temperature of the heavy quarkonia from the thermal width ΓT. In [29], authors have put a conservative condition for the dissociation ΓT>2Ebin. In [30], the authors have calculated the upper bound and the lower bound of the dissociation temperature (TD) by the condition for the dissociation: Ebin=TD and Ebin=3TD, respectively. In [43], the authors have obtained the dissociation temperature of quarkonia when the binding energies are of the order of the baryon chemical potential.We calculate the dissociation temperature for different states of heavy quarkonia from the conditionEbin=0, since the state is dissociated when its binding energy vanished as in [27].In Table1, we have calculated the dissociation temperature for the ground state and the first excited states of cc- and bb- at N=3 and also at higher dimensional space atN = 4 andN = 5 when chemical potential vanishes. It is noted from Table 1 that the states dissociate around 1.3Tc. The values of J/ψ and Υ′ quantitatively agree with the values recently reported by Agotiya et al. [30]. Υ gives smaller value in comparison with [30] which equals 1.7Tc. Also, the value of Υ is in agreement with that in [53] which gives the dissociation temperature of the 1S bottomoniumTable 1

c. In [30], the dissociation temperature depends on the chosen Debye screening mass. It is important to display the effect of dimensionality number on the dissociation temperature. We note from Table 1 that increasing dimensionality number leads to increasing dissociation temperature at zero chemical potential.In Table2, the dissociation temperatures for different states of heavy-quarkonium mesons have been obtained at finite chemical potential (μ=600 MeV) and the critical temperature (Tc=185 MeV). One notes that increasing dimensional number leads to a small increase in the dissociation temperatures. In Table 3, by increasing chemical potential μ=900 MeV, there is an important observation: an increase in the value of quark chemical potential increases the value of dissociation temperatures. Therefore, the finite chemical and dimensional number play an important role in changing dissociation temperatures which are not taken into account in many previous works such as [30, 53].Table 2

## 4. Summary and Conclusion

In this paper, we have employed the analytical exact iteration method (AEIM) for determining the analytic solution of theN-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation, in which the Cornell potential is generalized at finite temperature and quark chemical potential. The energy eigenvalues have been calculated in theN-dimensional space for any state, in which one can obtain the energy eigenvalues in lower dimensions in agreement with recent works. We noted that the energy eigenvalues are only valid for nonzero temperature at any value of chemical potential. The present results are applied to studying properties of heavy quarkonia such as charmonium and bottomonium. The effect of temperature, chemical potential, and dimensionality number is studied on the binding energies and the mass spectra of heavy quarkonia. The present results are in agreement with recent works [25, 29, 33]. The binding energies of 1S and 1P states for charmonium and bottomonium have been studied in comparison with other studies [11, 30]. Additionally, the effect of the dimensionality number (N) on the values of dissociation temperatures of heavy quarkonia has been studied at zero and finite chemical potential. We consider the effect of finite quark chemical potential on quarkonium properties which play an important role in QGP and the studied values of the chemical potential are never reached in the heavy-ion collision. We conclude that the present potential with using AEIM is successful in describing the quarkonium properties at hot and dense mediums from normal dimensional space to higher dimensional space. We hope to extend this work by including external magnetic field and hyperfine interactions which need more investigations as a future work.
