Description
We assess the theoretical uncertainties on the inclusive $J/\psi$ production
cross section in the Color Evaporation Model using values for the charm quark
mass, renormalization and factorization scales obtained
from a fit to the charm production data [1]. We use our new results to provide
improved baseline comparison calculations at RHIC.
We also study the rapidity, $p_T$ and centrality dependence of cold
nuclear matter effects on $J/\psi$
production in the CEM [2,3].\\[3ex]
