We discuss $J/\psi$ suppression in a QCD based nuclear absorption model. Centrality dependence of $J/\psi$ suppression in S+U and in Pb+Pb collisions are explained in the model. However, the model fails to explain the centrality dependence…
The azimuthal asymmetry of $J/\psi$ suppression in non-central heavy-ion collisions is studied within a dynamic model of $J/\psi$ suppression in a deconfined partonic medium. Within this model, $J/\psi$ suppression in heavy-ion collisions…
The discrepancy between theory and data in the momentum distribution of slow J/psi in B decays has been several times addressed as a puzzle. Using the most recent results on exclusive B decays into J/psi and heavy kaons or exotic mesons and…
We study possible new physics (NP) effects on $B_c \to J/\psi \tau\bar\nu$, which has been recently measured at LHCb as the ratio of $R_{J/\psi} = \mathcal B(B_c \to J/\psi \tau\bar\nu)/\mathcal B(B_c \to J/\psi \mu\bar\nu)$. Combining it…
The effects of energy loss in cold nuclear matter on J/psi suppression in p-A collisions are studied. A simple model based on first principles and depending on a single free parameter is able to reproduce J/psi suppression data at large xF…
We calculate the cross sections for reactions of the J/psi with light mesons. We also evaluate its finite temperature spectral function. We investigate separately the role of elastic and inelastic channels and we compare their respective…
We show that, contrary to recent claims, the $J/\psi$ suppression resulting from its interaction with comovers does not saturate at large transverse energy $E_T$. On the contrary, it shows a characteristic structure - change of curvature…
A review of the current status of SUSY/SUGRA/String phenomenology is given.
The paper is being withdrawn because of some theoretical inconsistencies.
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…
This article gives a compact introduction and overview of the theory underlying the experiments described in the rest of this review.
We revisit the standard treatment [Xu, Kharzeev, Satz and Wang, Phys. Rev. C {\bf 53}, 3051 (1996)] of $J/\psi$ suppression due to gluonic bombardment in an equilibrating quark-gluon plasma. Effects arising from gluon fugacity, relative…
We study anomalous dissipation from a microscopic viewpoint. In the work by Drivas, Elgindi, Iyer and Jeong (2022), the property of anomalous dissipation provides the existence of non-unique weak solutions for a transport equation with a…
The purpose of this note is to present a mathematical evidence of dissipation anomaly in 3D turbulent flows within a general setting for the study of energy cascade in physical scales of 3D incompressible flows recently introduced by the…
The proposed hadronic and string cascade model, JPCIAE, for ultrarelativistic nucleus - nucleus collisions based on the LUND model and the PYTHIA event generator especially, is used to investigate the $J/\psi$ suppression due to the nuclear…
We propose a new explanation for the longstanding puzzle of the tiny branching fraction of psi' -> rho pi relative to that for J/psi -> rho pi. In the case of J/psi, we argue that this decay is dominated by a higher Fock state in which the…
Present laboratory limits on the coupling strength of anomalous pseudoscalar and axial interactions are many orders of magnitude weaker than their scalar and vector analogs. Here we investigate two mechanisms which can circumvent this…
The observed features of $\psi'$ to $J/\psi$ suppression in $pA$ and nucleus-nucleus collisions can be explained in terms of a two-component absorption model. For the hard component of the absorption due to the interaction of the produced…
This paper is a request for help to clarify a rather confusing state of the Theory.
We analise the implications of the measurement of $B$ and $J/\psi$ inclusive \pt\ distributions performed in $p\bar p$ collisions by the UA1 and CDF experiments.
