The probabilistic Glauber formula for nuclear absorption used in the literature is only valid at low energies and $x_+ \simeq 0$. Due to energy conservation, $\sigma_{abs}$ is replaced by an effective cross-section $\sigma_{abs} +…
The ALICE Collaboration at the LHC has measured the J/$\psi$ and $\psi^{'}$ photoproduction at mid-rapidity in ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=2.76$ TeV. The charmonium is identified via its leptonic decay for events…
We reinvestigate the $J/\psi$ dissociation processes induced by the reactions with nucleons, $J/\psi + N \to \bar{D}^{(*)} + \Lambda_c$, in the meson-exchange model. Main constraints used in this work are vector-meson dominance and charm…
$J/\psi$ production cross section considering the contributions of both color-singlet and color-octet $c\bar c$ channels is calculated. The result is used to study the suppression of $J/\psi$ in nuclear collisions. With absorption cross…
The J/\Psi(1S) and \Psi'(2S) production near threshold in antiproton-nucleus reactions is calculated on the basis of the Glauber model. The model takes into account the antiproton (pre)absorption, proton Fermi motion, and charmonium…
We study the $J/\psi$ photoproduction from nuclei near the kinematic threshold within the first collision model, based on the nuclear spectral function, for incoherent primary photon--nucleon charmonium creation processes. The model takes…
We have analysed the latest NA50 data on $J/\psi$ production in pA and AA collisions. The $J/\psi$ production is assumed to be a two step process, (i) formation of $c\bar{c}$ pairs, perturbatively calculable, and (ii) formation of $J/\psi$…
A kinetic equation approach is applied to model anomalous J/psi suppression at RHIC and SPS by absorption in a hadron resonance gas which successfully describes statistical hadron production in both experiments. The puzzling rapidity…
We investigate the transition from suppression to enhancement of J/psi mesons produced in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions in the framework of the statistical hadronization model. The calculations are confronted with the most recent…
Effective Lagrangian models of charmonium have recently been used to estimate dissociation cross sections with light hadrons. Detailed study of the symmetry properties reveals possible shortcomings relative to chiral symmetry. We therefore…
An effective hadronic Lagrangian including the charm mesons is introduced to study their interactions in hadronic matter. Using coupling constants that are determined either empirically or by the SU(4) symmetry, we have evaluated the…
I review possible resolution of the $J/\psi (\psi^{\prime}) \to \rho-\pi$ puzzle based on two inputs: the relative phase between the one- photon and the gluonic decay amplitudes, and a possible hadronic excess in the inclusive…
Charmonium production and suppression in heavy-ion collisions at relativistic energies is investigated within different models, i.e. the comover absorption model, the threshold suppression model, the statistical coalescence model and the…
We calculate the nonperturbative $J/\Psi-N$ and $\Psi'-N$ cross sections with the model of the stochastic vacuum which has been succesfully applied in many high energy reactions. We also give a quantitative discussion of pre-resonance…
The available data on $J/\Psi$ photoproduction are analyzed in terms of pomeron exchange, two gluon exchange and photon-gluon fusion models. Allowing the pomeron-quark interaction to be flavour dependent and introducing the soft and hard…
In this short review we summarize experimental information and theoretical results for the low-energy dissociation cross sections of charmonia by light hadrons. These cross sections are required for the simulation of charmonium absorption…
A collision of a light meson and a charmonium produces quarks and antiquarks first, then the charm quark fragments into a charmed hadron, and finally three or more mesons are produced. This is the mechanism that we consider and propose to…
The measurement of charmonium states produced in proton-neon ($p$Ne) collisions by the LHCb experiment in its fixed-target configuration is presented. The production of $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ mesons is studied with a beam of 2.5 TeV…
In this contribution we summarize experimental information and theoretical results for the dissociation cross sections of charmonium by light hadrons. Theoretical predictions for these RHIC-related processes differ by orders of magnitude…
