The $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ charmonium states, composed of $c\bar{c}$ quark pairs and known since the 1970s, are widely believed to serve as ideal probes to test quantum chromodynamics in high-energy hadronic interactions. However, there is…
We use our mixed hybrid model for the $\Psi(2S)$ state to estimate $\Psi(2S)$ to $J/\Psi(1S)$ suppression in p-Pb collisions, and the $\Upsilon(3S)$ state to estimate $\Upsilon(3S)$ to $\Upsilon(1S)$ suppression in Pb-Pb collisions, and…

We investigate the production of psi(2S) in nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We first address charmonium production in 200 GeV d-Au collisions at RHIC; the strong suppression of psi' mesons observed in these reactions indicates…

We have analyzed the latest NA50 data on $J/\psi$ suppression in Pb + Pb collisions. $J/\psi$ production is assumed to be a two step process, (i) formation of $c\bar{c}$ pair, which is accurately calculable in QCD and (ii) formation of…
