Dr Stephane Peigne (Subatech)15/11/2012, 14:30The effects of parton energy loss in cold nuclear matter on heavy-quarkonium suppression in p-A collisions are discussed. It is shown from first principles that at large quarkonium energy E in the nucleus rest frame, the medium-induced energy loss is proportional to E. Using this result, a phenomenological model depending on a single free parameter is able to reproduce J/psi and Upsilon...Go to contribution page

J. Matthew Durham (Los Alamos National Laboratory)15/11/2012, 15:00Cold NMThe flexibility of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has allowed the PHENIX Collaboration to perform detailed measurements of heavy quark production in p+p, d+Au, Cu+Cu, and Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV, probing a wide range of temperature and collision geometry.Studies of d+Au collisions have shown significant and surprising cold nuclear matter effects on both charmonium and open heavy...Go to contribution page

Mr Yasir Ali (University of Jageollanian)15/11/2012, 15:30Open charmA feasibility study of D0 meson (Open charm) measurements by its decay into two daughter particles, D0 → K+ π−, in central Pb+Pb collisions at the CERN SPS energies will be presented. The study for the NA61/SHINE experimental setup supplemented with a future vertex detector that will allow for a precise track and vertex reconstruction at the target proximity. In order to generate the...Go to contribution page
