Measurement of the relative yields of ψ(2S) to ψ(1S) mesons produced at forward and backward rapidity in et al.

Abstract: Measurement of the relative yields of ψ(2S) to ψ(1S) mesons produced at forward and backward rapidity in p+p, p+Al, p+Au, and The PHENIX Collaboration has measured the ratio of the yields of ψ(2S) to ψ(1S) mesons produced in p+p, p+Al, p+Au, and 3 He+Au collisions at √ s N N = 200 GeV over the forward and backward rapidity intervals 1.2 < |y| < 2.2. We find that the ratio in p+p collisions is consistent with measurements at other collision energies. In collisions with nuclei, we find that in the forward (p-goi… Show more

“…arXiv:1707.07266v2 [hep-ph] 1 Feb 2018 , is smaller than 0.6, even for P ⊥ as large as 7 GeV at rapidities towards the proton fragmentation region. The ψ(2S)/J/ψ suppression in p+A collisions is also seen by the LHCb Collaboration [30] and in more detailed studies by both the ALICE Collaboration [31] and the PHENIX Collaboration [32]. Key features of the experimental results are (i) the ratio R is nearly flat at 0.6 for forward rapidities even as P ⊥ becomes larger while at backward rapidities, it goes to unity with increasing P ⊥ .…”

“…With the above approach the knowledge of the heavy quark production cross section along with the thermal parameters obtained from the analysis of the yields of hadrons composed of light quarks, see previous section, is sufficient to determine the yield of hadrons containing heavy quarks in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions. [117][118][119][120][121][122]. The point for central Pb-Pb collisions at SPS energy is from the NA50 experiment [123].…”

“…In both the channels, the first and second peaks seem to melt almost simultaneously. It is interesting to compare our predictions for excited states with recent experimental [35][36][37][38][39][40] or theoretical results [55][56][57].…”

“…In the recent heavy-ion collision experiments, the suppression of charmonium excited states (ψ or ψ(2S)) was also observed [35][36][37][38][39][40]. The experimental results show that the yield of the excited state is more strongly suppressed when more nucleons participate in the collision.…”
