In this article, we perform a systematic investigation of the cold nuclear matter (CNM) effects, operative on charmonium ($J/\psi$, $\psi(2S)$) production, in fixed target proton-nucleus (p+A) collisions. Influence on charmonium production…
We re-analyse the data on J/psi cross sections for proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions obtained by the CERN experiments NA38, NA51 and NA50. Our systematic analysis of error propagation shows that the no anomalous suppression of…
Collisions between hadronic systems at relativistic energies provide a window on the small-x gluon distributions of fast moving nuclei. It has been predicted that gluon saturation effects will manifest themselves as a suppression in the…
In the QGP based threshold model \cite{Blaizot:2000ev,Blaizot:1996nq}, in addition to the normal nuclear absorption, $J/\psi$'s are subjected to an 'anomalous' suppression such that above a threshold density $n_{J/\psi}$, all the $J/\psi$'s…

We study the production and polarization of $J/\psi$ mesons within a jet in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. We define the $J/\psi$-jet fragmentation function as a ratio of differential jet cross sections with and without the…
We suggest the variation of charmonium suppression with Feynman x_F in heavy ion collisions as a novel and sensitive probe for the properties of the matter created in such reactions. In contrast to the proton-nucleus case where nuclear…
Both charm and bottom quarks form nonrelativistic bound states analogous to positronium. The J/psi and psi(2S) charmonium states and the first three Upsilon(nS) bottomonium states, all spin-triplet S-wave quarkonium states below…
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) has measured the suppression of the bottomonium states Y(1S), Y(2S), and Y(3S) in PbPb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 2.76 TeV relative to pp collisions, scaled by the number of inelastic nucleon-nucleon…
Nuclear shadowing and color glass condensate are possible only at sufficiently small x where parton clouds of different nucleons overlap in the longitudinal direction. Another condition vital for these effect, an overlap of partons in…
When the cross section of J/psi production is considered varying with the energy of the nucleon-nucleon interaction the production of J/psi in pA and AA collisions has been studied using FRITIOF Model. The calculation shows that the cross…

Charmonia suppression is one of the main signatures for the formation of a deconfined medium. However, also nuclear effects, not related to the production of a hot medium, can affect the J/psi yield. The determination, from the study of p-A…
We present results for three charmonia states (psi^prime, chi_c and J/psi) in d+Au collisions at |y|<0.35 and sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV. We find that the modification of the psi^prime yield relative to that of the J/psi scales approximately with…
Measurements of the suppression of the yield per nucleon of J/Psi and Psi' production for 800 GeV/c protons incident on heavy relative to light nuclear targets have been made with very broad coverage in xF and pT. The observed suppression…

The ALICE Collaboration has studied inclusive J/$\psi$ and $\psi$(2S) production in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV with the Muon Spectrometer. The measurement was performed at forward (2.03 $<$ $y_{\rm cms}$ $<$ 3.53) and…
$J/\psi$ suppression/production is one of the main signature of quark-gluon plasma detection at RHIC and LHC. In order to study $j/\psi$ suppression/production in high energy heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC, one needs to prove the…

In high energy nuclear collisions, the Glauber model is commonly used to evaluate $J/\psi$ suppression due to inelastic interaction with colorless bound nucleons. This requires an effective value for the $J/\psi$-nucleon absorption cross…
