At RHIC the cross section for c-cbar production will be large enough such that approximately 10 pairs will be produced in each central collision. If a region of deconfined quarks and gluons is subsequently formed, one would expect that the…

We study the production of heavy quarkonium in association with an additional heavy pair. We argue that important contributions may come from phase space regions where three heavy fermions are separated by relative velocities much lower…
