Open and Hidden Charm Production in d$A$ Collisions at RHIC and LHC

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-01-07 v1

Abstract

We discuss aspects of open and hidden charm production in deuterium-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We describe calculations of the total ccˉc \bar c cross section and the charm quark transverse momentum distributions. We next explain how shadowing and moderate nuclear absorption can explain the PHENIX J/ψJ/\psi dAu/pppp ratios and predict the combined effect of shadowing and absorption in 6.2 TeV d+Pb collisions.
