Hadron multiplicities in nucleus--nucleus interactions are calculated in the Dual Parton Model and its dependence on the number of collisions and the number of participants is analyzed. Shadowing corrections are calculated as a function of…
We calculate the in-medium masses of J/$\psi$ and of the excited states of charmonium ($\psi$(3686) and $\psi$(3770)) in isospin asymmetric nuclear matter at finite temperatures. These mass modifications arise due to the interaction of the…
We propose a model of suppression of $\pi^0$'s based on two different effects: at low $p_T$ we take into account the shadowing corrections, which are non-linear and essential for the description of the inclusive spectra, while at large…
We treat the question of bottomonia suppression in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions (URHIC) as a dynamical open quantum problem, tackled for the first time using the Schr\"odinger-Langevin equation. Coupling this equation to the EPOS2…
We present an improved version of the Wong formula for heavy-ion fusion, where the parameters of the parabolic approximation of the Coulomb barrier are replaced by parameters of the l-dependent potential at an effective partial-wave. A…
At CLEO, charmonium spectroscopy is pursued both thorugh e+e- annihilation data taken in the Upsilon region and more recently at psi(2S). A nmber of first observations (eta_c', h_c, pi and K form factors) have been made, and numerous high…
We discuss the production of charmonium in nuclear collisions within the framework of the statistical hadronization model. We demonstrate that the model reproduces very well the availble data at RHIC. We provide predictions for the LHC…
We revisit the standard treatment [Xu, Kharzeev, Satz and Wang, Phys. Rev. C {\bf 53}, 3051 (1996)] of $J/\psi$ suppression due to gluonic bombardment in an equilibrating quark-gluon plasma. Effects arising from gluon fugacity, relative…
We present a microscopic calculation of the breakup cross sections of $J/\psi$ and $\psi'$ on pions and nucleons as a function of the kinetic energy. These cross sections are used for the investigation of the $J/\psi$ to continuum and…
Based on $\psi(3686)$ decays of 106 million, the 1.31 billion J/psi events and a data sample of $\psi(3770)$ with $2.9~fb^{-1}$ integrated luminosity, many analyses are performed. Exclusively baryonic decays of the $\psi(3770)$, the…
The study of electron-positron collisions at center-of-mass energies corresponding to charmonium production has reached new levels of sensitivity thanks to experiments by the BES and CLEO Collaborations. Final states $\gamma P$, where $P$…
Coherent multiple scatterings of c and cbar quark pairs in the environment of heavy ion collisions have been used in a previous work by Qiu et al. [Qiu:1998rz] to study J/psi suppression. That model suggests that heavy quark re-scatterings…
We investigate the in-medium modification of the charmonium breakup processes due to the Mott-effect for D-mesons at the chiral phase transition. A model calculation for the process J/Psi+pi --> D+D^*+ h.c. is presented which demonstrates…

Charmonium spectroscopy provides strong guidelines to effective field theories, thereby gaining insight into quark confinement and the generation of hadron masses. Hadronic transitions between charmonium states have been measured with…

The stochastic resolution of identity (sRI) approximation significantly reduces the computational scaling of CC2 from O(N^5) to O(N^3), where N is a measure of system size. However, the inherent stochastic noise, while controllable, can…
The observed features of $\psi'$ to $J/\psi$ suppression in $pA$ and nucleus-nucleus collisions can be explained in terms of a two-component absorption model. For the hard component of the absorption due to the interaction of the produced…
All measured Feynman x_f distributions of the ratio, R, of j_psi production in nuclei relative to production on protons fall off with x_f. They show [2] that absorption of charmonium cannot be the only source of j_psi suppression and that…
In a previous work the concept of quantum potential is generalized into extended phase space (EPS) for a particle in linear and harmonic potentials. It was shown there that in contrast to the Schr\"odinger quantum mechanics by an…
