J/ψ production and nuclear effects for d+Au and p+p collisions in PHENIX
نویسنده
چکیده
PHENIX has measured J/ψ production at backward, central and forward rapidities both in p+p and d+Au collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV during the third run of the RHIC collider. From the p+p collisions, we measure the total J/ψ cross section. From the d+Au collisions, we compute the nuclear modification factor versus transverse momentum, rapidity and centrality. All results presented here are preliminary.

Heavy Flavor Production at PHENIX at RHIC
A study of heavy flavor production in different collision systems in various kinematic regions presents an opportunity to probe cold nuclear medium and hot dense matter effects. Results from the PHENIX experiment on J/ψ and open charm production in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sNN =200 GeV are presented. The data show strong J/ψ suppression in central AA collisions, similar to NA50 results, an...

We report new quarkonia measurements necessary to understand production mechanisms and cold nuclear matter effects in the yields observed at RHIC energy. Results obtained in p+p collisions collected during the 2006 RHIC Run include J/ψ , ψ′ and Υ differential cross sections as well as J/ψ polarization. Revisited interpretations of the published J/ψ nuclear modification factors and statistically...
متن کاملQuarkonium Production in PHENIX
Quarkonia provide a sensitive probe of the properties of the hot dense medium created in high energy heavy ion collisions. Hard scattering processes result in the production of heavy quark pairs that interact with the collision medium during hadronization. These in medium interactions convey information about the fundamental properties of the medium itself and can be used to examine the modific...
متن کاملJ/ψ production in PHENIX
Heavy quarkonia production is expected to be sensitive to the formation of a quark gluon plasma (QGP). The PHENIX experiment has measured J/ψ production at √ sNN = 200 GeV in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions, as well as in reference p+p and d+Au runs. J/ψ’s were measured both at mid (|y| < 0.35) and forward (1.2 < |y| < 2.2) rapidity. In this letter, we present the A+A preliminary results and compare...
