Abstract

The production of charmonia in the antiproton-nucleus reactions at plab=310p_{\rm lab}=3-10 GeV/c is studied within the Glauber model and the generalized eikonal approximation. The main reaction channel is charmonium formation in an antiproton-proton collision. The target mass dependence of the charmonium transparency ratio allows to determine the charmonium-nucleon cross section. The polarization effects in the production of χc2\chi_{c2} states are evaluated.
