The J/ψ Way to Nuclear Structure
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose to investigate the properties of nuclear matter by measuring the elastic scattering of J/ψ on nuclei with high precision. The J/ψ mesons are produced from the photons emitted in high energy electron-proton or electron-nucleus scattering in the low-x region. The measurement could be performed at the future ENC, EIC or LHeC facilities.

Different Nuclear Dependence of J / ψ and ψ ′ Production in p - A and A - p Collisions ∗
While presently available p-A data observe that the nuclear dependence of J/ψ and ψ production is the same within errors, we show that different nuclear dependence of J/ψ and ψ production in the kinematic region uncovered by the present p-A data can be predicted based on two different nuclear absorption scenarios. It is found that the predicted production ratio σ(ψ)/σ(J/ψ) at positive xF in A-p...
متن کاملA New Approach of J/ψ suppression in pA and AA Collisions
When the cross section of J/ψ production is considered varying with the energy of the nucleon-nucleon interaction the production of J/ψ in pA and AA collisions has been studied using FRITIOF Model. The calculation shows that the cross section of J/ψ production “per nucleon-nucleon collision” decreases with increasing mass number and centrality as a consequence of continuous energy loss of the p...
متن کاملAn alternative way of plotting the data and results of models of J / ψ suppression
We propose an alternative way of looking at data on anomalous J/ψ suppression. The proposed method is in principle equivalent to the one used by the NA50 Collaboration, but it permits to visualize separate contributions of individual processes responsible for the disintegration of J/ψ's produced by a hard process in nuclear collisions. The method can be used provided that the time sequence of c...
متن کاملEvidence for Statistical Production of J/ψ Mesons in Nuclear Collisions at the CERN SPS
The hypothesis of statistical production of J/ψ mesons at hadronization is formulated and checked against experimental data. It explains in the natural way the observed scaling behavior of the J/ψ to pion ratio at the CERN SPS energies. Using the multiplicities of J/ψ and η mesons the hadronization temperature TH ∼= 170 MeV is found, which agrees well with the previous estimates of the temperat...

In the field theoretical Glauber-Gribov framework in the eikonal approximation , we show that, in hadron-nucleus collisions in the high-energy limit and under especific conditions, the rescattering contributions to the J/ψ production cross-section vanish, leading to an A 1 dependence on the atomic number A – except for nuclear effects in the nucleus structure function, the so-called shadowing. ...
