Recently we have conjectured that (in-)elastic collisions of (pre-)hadronic high momentum states with the bulk of hadrons in the late fireball might substantially account for the attenuation of the high transverse momentum hadrons at RHIC.…

The first reports of $\psi$ and $\psi'$ production from experiment NA50 at the CERN SPS are compared to predictions based on a hadronic model of charmonium suppression. Data on centrality dependence and total cross sections are in good…
Heavy quarkonia are observed to be suppressed in relativistic heavy ion collisions relative to their production in p+p collisions scaled by the number of binary collisions. In order to determine if this suppression is related to color…
Jet quenching as observed via high p_T hadron production is studied in the HIJING1.35 model. We test the model on recent WA98 data on 160 AGeV Pb+Pb -> pi0 up to 4 GeV/c. The results depend sensitively on the model of the Cronin effect. At…

Using the methods introduced in a previous paper, we consider the dissociation of J/psi by the lowest-lying pseudoscalar and vector mesons in the hadronic fireball formed in heavy ion collisions, assumed to be a hadron gas at temperature T.…
We update our previous work of a Langevin-with-interaction model for charmonium in heavy-ion collisions, by considering the effect due to recombination. We determine the contribution to J/psi yields from charm-anticharm pairs whose…
Data from J/psi and psi' production in p-A collisions are used to determine the cross section for absorption of pre-resonance charmonium in nuclear matter. The J/psi suppression in O-Cu, O-U and S-U collisions is fully reproduced by the…
We study the hot medium effects in high-multiplicity proton-proton (pp) collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=13$ TeV via the charmonium probes. The hot medium is described with the hydrodynamic model, while charmonium evolutions in the medium are…
The suppression of hadrons with large transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) in central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 200 GeV compared to a binary scaled p+p reference is one of the major discoveries at RHIC. To understand the nature…
The J/$\psi$ yields in heavy ion collisions are expected to be a promising probe of deconfined matter, since theoretical models predict that the J/$\psi$ production could be strongly suppressed due to color screening effect in a Quark Gluon…

Yields for J/psi production in Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt (s_NN)= 200 GeV have been measured by the PHENIX experiment over the rapidity range |y| < 2.2 at transverse momenta from 0 to beyond 5 GeV/c. The invariant yield is obtained as a…
We investigate transverse hadron spectra from proton+proton, deuteron+Au and Au+Au collisions at sqrt{s}=200 GeV and 17.3 GeV within the Hadron-String-Dynamics (HSD) approach which is based on quark, diquark, string and hadronic degrees of…
We discuss features of charmonium suppression at $\sqtr{s} = 200$ GeV within the framework of the Glauber-Gribov theory and the comovers interaction model. The latter approach has been extended by allowing for secondary charmonium…
