We study J/ψ suppression in AB collisions assuming that the charmonium states evolve from small, color transparent configurations. Their interaction with nucleons and nonequilibrated, secondary hadrons is simulated using the microscopic model UrQMD. The Drell-Yan lepton pair yield and the J/ψ/Drell-Yan ratio are calculated as a function of the neutral transverse energy in Pb+Pb collisions at 16...

We study the combined effect of nuclear absorption and final state interaction with co-moving hadrons on the J/ψ and ψ ′ suppression in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions. We show that a reasonable description of the experimental data can be achieved with theoretically meaningful values of the cross-sections involved and without introducing any discontinuity in the J/ψ or ψ ′ surviva...

We outline theoretical ideas on the soft and hard dynamics of strong high-energy interactions and discuss promising directions for future high-energy experimental investigations including the ones which would allow one to reveal the three-dimensional structure of QCD bound states, investigate the onset of regime of large parton densities, and observe the violation of the DGLAP evolution equatio...
