A reexamination of hadronic comover scattering indicates that this mechanism cannot explain the observed $\psi$ suppression in Pb+Pb interactions. The possibility of quark-gluon plasma formation is therefore considered.
The production of charmonia in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is formulated within the framework of a quantum kinetic theory simultaneously accounting for breakup and recombination processes. The survival probability of J/Psi mesons is…
