Baseline Cold Matter Effects on J/ψ Production in AA Collisions at RHIC

نویسنده

  • R. Vogt
چکیده

We present baseline calculations of initial-state shadowing and finalstate absorption effects on J/ψ production in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. We show predictions for Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at √ SNN = 200 GeV and Cu+Cu collisions at √ SNN = 62 GeV as a function of the rapidity, y, and the number of binary nucleon-nucleon collisions, Ncoll.

Nuclear modification of the J/Psi transverse momentum

Nuclear modification of the J/ψ transverse momentum distributions in high energy pA and AA collisions We evaluate the transverse momentum spectrum of J/ψ (up to semi-hard momenta) in pA and AA collisions taking into account only the initial state effects, but resumming them to all orders in α 2 s A 1/3. In our previous papers we noticed that cold nuclear matter effects alone could not explain t...

Heavy Flavor Production at PHENIX at RHIC

A study of heavy flavor production in different collision systems in various kinematic regions presents an opportunity to probe cold nuclear medium and hot dense matter effects. Results from the PHENIX experiment on J/ψ and open charm production in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sNN =200 GeV are presented. The data show strong J/ψ suppression in central AA collisions, similar to NA50 results, an...

RHIC Results on J/ψ

Quarkonia (J/ψ, ψ', Υ) production provides a sensitive probe of gluon distributions and their modification in nuclei; and is a leading probe of the hot-dense (deconfined) matter created in high-energy collisions of heavy ions. We will discuss the current understanding of the production process and of the cold-nuclear-matter effects that modify this production in nuclei in the context of recent ...

Shadowing and Absorption Effects on J/ψ Production in dA Collisions

We study medium modifications of J/ψ production in cold nuclear media in deuterium-nucleus collisions. We discuss several parameterizations of the modifications of the parton densities in the nucleus, known as shadowing, an initial-state effect. We also include absorption of the produced J/ψ by nucleons, a final-state effect. Both spatially homogeneous and inhomogeneous shadowing and absorption...

J/ψ production in Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at RHIC-PHENIX

The J/ψ is considered to be among the most important probes for the deconfined quark gluon plasma (QGP) created by relativistic heavy ion collisions. While the J/ψ is thought to dissociate in the QGP by Debye color screening, there are competing effects from cold nuclear matter (CNM), feed-downs from excited charmonia and bottom quarks, and regeneration from uncorrelated charm quarks. Measureme...
