In this paper, we investigate the effects of anisotropic parameters, topological defects, and magnetic flux on the dissociation energy of bottomonium in an anisotropic quark-gluon plasma. We use the three-dimensional Schrödinger equation and derive the energy eigenvalues. Our findings show that the dissociation energy decreases with increasing temperature, but there is a slight shift towards higher values when the magnetic flux is increased. Furthermore, the inclusion of topological defects causes further shifts in the dissociation energy at high temperatures. Additionally, we analyze the impact of anisotropic medium on dissociation energy, both with and without considering topological defects. We observe that including topological defects results in higher values for the dissociation energy across all temperatures, while ignoring them leads to lower values at all temperatures studied. Moreover, we consider the baryonic chemical potential and find that its effect on dissociation is negligible compared to temperature variations. These findings provide valuable insights into the behavior of heavy quarkonium systems under different physical conditions and contribute to our understanding of topological effects in anisotropic media.
