$J/\psi$ observables of p+p collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 200 GeV and 2.76 TeV are calculated using the PYTHIA event generator for the production of $c$ and $\bar c$ and the Wigner density formalism. The charm quark momentum from PYTHIA is…
By using models based on Regge phenomenology we analyse the coherent photoproduction of charmonium in peripheral heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The centrality dependence is investigated and compared to the…
Charmonium suppression in hot and dense nuclear matter has been argued to be a signature for the production of the quark gluon plasma (QGP). In order to search for this effect in heavy ion collisions one must have a clear understanding of…

Heavy quarkonium production is an excellent tool to test both perturbative and non-perturbative QCD, as perturbative QCD can describe the heavy quark production process, while the formation of the quarkonium bound state involves…

We have analysed the latest NA50 data on $J/\psi$ production in pA and AA collisions. The $J/\psi$ production is assumed to be a two step process, (i) formation of $c\bar{c}$ pairs, perturbatively calculable, and (ii) formation of $J/\psi$…
