Gluon saturation effects on J/Psi production in heavy ion collisions

arXiv:0907.1604 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2009.09.025

Abstract

We discuss a novel mechanism for J/Psi$ production in nuclear collisions arising due to the high density of gluons. We demonstrate that gluon saturation in the colliding nuclei is a dominant source of J/Psi suppression and can explain its experimentally observed rapidity and centrality dependence.
