We have analyzed 121.4 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at the $\Upsilon(5S)$ resonance by the Belle experiment using the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider to search for the decay $B_s^0\to J/\psi\pi^0$. We observe no signal and report an…
We derive new sum rules for the form factors of the $B_c\to J/\psi\, \ell \bar{\nu}_\ell$ semileptonic transitions, employing the vacuum-to-$B_c$ correlation function of the $J/\psi$-interpolating and $b\to c$ weak currents. In the heavy…
We have analyzed the latest NA50 data on $J/\psi$ suppression in Pb+Pb collisions at CERN SPS. It is shown that a QCD based nuclear absorption model, where $J/\psi$'s are absorbed in nuclear medium could explain the latest NA50 data on the…
We have studied the transverse-momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) dependence of the inclusive J/$\psi$ production in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV, in three center-of-mass rapidity ($y_{\rm cms}$) regions, down to zero $p_{\rm T}$.…
We report on the $J/\psi$ production in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$2.76 TeV recorded with ALICE during the 2010 and 2011 LHC runs. The $J/\psi$ candidates are reconstructed using the $e^{+}e^{-}$ and $\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay channels…
