Our main observations are: (i) The effective path length of the $c\bar c$ wave packet, which is produced in the nucleus, grows with the energy of the produced charmonium. The variation is controlled by the coherence length…
In this article, we perform a systematic investigation of the cold nuclear matter (CNM) effects, operative on charmonium ($J/\psi$, $\psi(2S)$) production, in fixed target proton-nucleus (p+A) collisions. Influence on charmonium production…
Measured J/Psi production cross sections for 200 and 450 GeV/c protons incident on a variety of nuclear targets are analyzed within a Glauber framework which takes into account energy loss of the beam proton, the time delay of particle…
Based on a Glauber model, a statistical analysis of all mid-rapidity J/psi hadroproduction and leptoproduction data on nuclear targets is carried out. This allows us to determine the J/psi-nucleon inelastic cross section, whose knowledge is…
We discuss the new data for the production of the $\psi'$ meson in pA collisions at 450 GeV at CERN-SPS (of the NA50-collaboration) [1]. We extract from the CERN data $\sigma(\psi' N)\approx 8$ mb under the assumption that the $\psi'$ is…
The recently published experimental dependence of the J/psi suppression pattern in Pb+Pb collisions at the CERN SPS on the energy of zero degree calorimeter E_ZDC are analyzed. It is found that the data obtained within the `minimum bias'…
We consider the production of the J/psi mesons in heavy ion collisions at RHIC energies in the statistical coalescence model with an exact (canonical ensemble) charm conservation. The c\bar{c} quark pairs are assumed to be created in the…
When the cross section of J/psi production is considered varying with the energy of the nucleon-nucleon interaction the production of J/psi in pA and AA collisions has been studied using FRITIOF Model. The calculation shows that the cross…
We have examined the production of J/$\psi$ mesons in high energy proton-proton and proton-nucleus collisions at beam energies in the range from 158 GeV to 920 GeV, available from different fixed target experiments. In the employed model…
In proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions up to central $S-U$ interactions, the $P_T$-dependence of $J/\psi$ production is determined by initial state parton scattering and pre-resonance nuclear absorption (``normal" $J/\psi$…
Physics of charmonium suppression in nuclear collisions drastically changes between the energies of SPS and RHIC. Mechanisms suppressing charmonia at SPS are reviewed, neither of which is important at RHIC. On the other hand, coherence, or…
We suggest the variation of charmonium suppression with Feynman x_F in heavy ion collisions as a novel and sensitive probe for the properties of the matter created in such reactions. In contrast to the proton-nucleus case where nuclear…
We have analyzed the NA58 data on $J/\psi$ suppression in Pb+Pb collisions. $J/\psi$ production is assumed to be a two step process, (i) formation of $c\bar{c}$ pair, which is accurately calculable in QCD and (ii) formation of $J/\psi$…
We have analyzed the latest NA50 data on $J/\psi$ suppression in Pb + Pb collisions. $J/\psi$ production is assumed to be a two step process, (i) formation of $c\bar{c}$ pair, which is accurately calculable in QCD and (ii) formation of…
Recent studies of the interaction of vector mesons with nuclei make possible and opportune the study of the interaction of the $J/\psi$ with nuclei and the investigation of the origin of the $J/\psi$ suppression in its propagation thorough…
We report our latest results on charmonium suppression as measured at the CERN-SPS in Pb-Pb interactions at an incident beam momentum of 158 GeV/c per nucleon. Preliminary results obtained from the most recent sample of data collected in…
Production of $c\bar c$ pairs in elementary hadron-hadron collisions is introduced in a simulation of relativistic heavy ion collisions. Coalescence of charmed quarks and antiquarks into various charmonium states is performed and the…
The NA60 experiment has studied J/$\psi$ production in Indium-Indium collisions at 158 A$\cdot$GeV. In this paper we present an updated set of results obtained with the complete set of available statistics and an improved alignment of the…
We use the Drell-Yan differential distribution dN_{DY}^{AB}/dE_T in high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions to obtain a relation between the transverse energy E_T and the impact parameter b. Such a relation is then utilized to study the…
Coherence effects are important in the description of collisions with extended objects as nuclei. At fixed target energies and small x_F, the coherence length of the fluctuation containing the $c\bar c$ is small and the usual nuclear…
