Theoretical Interpretations of J/Psi Suppression: A Summary

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-31 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

The strong "anomalous" J/Psi suppression observed recently by the NA50 Collaboration at CERN SPS has attracted considerable attention. Is it the first signature of a long-awaited quark-gluon plasma, or just a peculiar combination of "conventional" effects acting together to produce the puzzling pattern observed experimentally? This talk is an attempt to summarize the theoretical explanations proposed during the last two years.
