Percolation approach to Quark Gluon Plasma and $J/\psi$ suppression

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

It is shown that the critical threshold for percolation of the overlapping strings exchanged in heavy ion collisions can naturally explain the sharp strong suppresion of J/ψJ/\psi shown by the experimental data on central Pb--Pb collisions, which does not occur in central O--U and S--U collisions.
