We suggest the ratio of the $\psi''(3770)/\psi'(3686)$ production cross sections as an unambiguous probe of the dominance of hard, point-like physics in charmonium production. If hard physics dominates the charmonium production the ratio :…
Based on the color-singlet model, we investigate the photoproduction of $J/\psi$ associated with a $c \bar{c}$ pair with all subprocesses including the direct, single-resolved, and double-resolved channels. The amplitude squared of these…
We investigate the theoretical uncertainty on the predictions for the photoproduction of J/psi and Upsilon states in the proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions at the LHC within the color dipole formalism. Predictions for the…
We attempt here to understand successfully some crucial aspects of $J/\Psi$-production in some high energy nuclear collisions in the light of a non-standard framework outlined in the text. It is found that the results arrived at with this…
We report on the $J/\psi$ production in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$2.76 TeV recorded with ALICE during the 2010 and 2011 LHC runs. The $J/\psi$ candidates are reconstructed using the $e^{+}e^{-}$ and $\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay channels…
The first reports of $\psi$ and $\psi'$ production from experiment NA50 at the CERN SPS are compared to predictions based on a hadronic model of charmonium suppression. Data on centrality dependence and total cross sections are in good…
We argue that a decrease of the chiral scalar meson mass is responsible for re-creation of $\Psi'$ from $J/\Psi$ in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions. This causes the charmonium yields to freeze out at temperatures close to the…
We investigate the exclusive photoproduction of $J/\psi$-mesons in ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions in the color dipole approach. We first test a number of dipole cross sections fitted to inclusive $F_2$-data against the total cross…
Photonuclear reactions are induced by the strong electromagnetic field generated by ultrarelativistic heavy ions. These processes have been extensively studied in ultraperipheral collisions. In recent years, the observation of coherent…
The ALICE collaboration has made the first measurement at the LHC of J/$\psi$ photoproduction in ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb-collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV. The J/$\psi$ is identified via its dimuon decay in the forward rapidity…
The coherent and incoherent $J/\Psi$ photoproduction in $PbPb$ collisions are investigated considering the possible states of nucleon configurations in the nuclear wave function and taking into account of the non - linear corrections to the…
We have analyzed the data on $\psi'$ production in proton-nucleus ($p+A$) collisions, available from the NA50 Collaboration in the SPS energy domain. The investigated data sets include the absolute production cross sections as well as…
Nuclear suppression of charmonium production in proton-nucleus interactions is poorly understood, what restrains our attempts to single out unusual effects in heavy ion collisions. We develop a phenomenological approach, based on the…
We have has performed the first measurement of the coherent $\psi$(2S) photo-production cross section in ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. This charmonium excited state is reconstructed via the $\psi$(2S) $\rightarrow…

In the framework of a model based on nuclear absorption plus comover interaction, we compute the $E_{T}$ distribution of the $J/\psi$ in $PbPb$ collisions at SPS and compare it with available NA50 data. Our analysis suggests that the…

The suppression of quarkonium production in nucleus-nucleus collisions was originally proposed as a signal of colour deconfinement. Strong ``anomalous" J/\psi suppression in Pb-Pb collisions has been reported at this Conference by the NA50…
We study the combined effect of nuclear absorption and final state interaction with co-moving hadrons on the $J/\Psi$ and $\Psi '$ suppression in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions. We show that reasonable description of the…
Charmonium production from the hadron gas formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is studied. Using the $J/\psi$-hadron absorption cross section determined from the nonperturbative quark-exchange model, which has a peak value…
