J/ψProduction and Nuclear Effects ford+Auandp+pCollisions atet al.

Abstract: J/ψ production in d + Au and p + p collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV has been measured by the PHENIX experiment at rapidities −2.2 < y < +2.4. The cross sections and nuclear dependence of J/ψ production versus rapidity, transverse momentum, and centrality are obtained and compared to lower energy p + A results and to theoretical models. The observed nuclear dependence in d + Au collisions is found to be modest, suggesting that the absorption in the final state is weak and the shadowing of the gluon distributions i… Show more

“…The comparison of NA3 [7], E772/ E866 [8,10], as well as PHENIX [15] measurements made it possible to rule out a scaling of J=c suppression in the target parton momentum fraction x 2 , indicating a violation of factorization in charm hadroproduction [16]. This observation consequently ruled out the nuclear modifications of parton densities in the target as being a dominant effect.…”

“…In heavy-ion collision experiments, the QGP created is expected to cause a suppression of J=c creation due to the dissociation of charmonia in the deconfinement phase of QCD [1]. Suppression of J=c particles was actually observed in several experiments at the Super Proton Synchrotron [2] and the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider [3]. Here, not only J=c but also c and c 0 states contribute to the total yield of J=c [4].…”

“…In proton (deuteron)-nucleus collisions, p(d)+A, the formation of a large region of deconfined and hot QGP matter was not expected to occur. Therefore, the observed suppression of quarkonium yields in these systems with respect to pp collisions [4][5][6][7] has traditionally been attributed to CNM effects.…”
