We analyze $J/\psi-$ production in nucleon-nucleon collisions near threshold in the framework of a general model independent formalism, which can be applied to any reaction $N+N\to N+N+V^0$, where $V^0=\omega$, $\phi$, or $J/\psi$. Such…
The ratios of charged antiparticles to particles have been obtained for pions, kaons and protons near midrapidity in central Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV. Ratios of <pi->/<pi+> = 1.025 +/- 0.006 (stat.) +/- 0.018 (syst.),…
