Description
The measurement of quarkonia production in relativistic heavy ion collisions provides a powerful tool for studying the properties of hot and dense matter created in these collisions. To have a complete understanding, however, such measurements must cover a wide range of quarkonia states, collision energies and colliding species. The PHENIX detector recently collected high statistics data using a variety of heavy ion species and beam energies in a broad rapidity range. This talk will present the most recent measurements of J/$\psi$, $\psi^{\prime}$, $\chi_c$ and $\Upsilon$ production in d+Au, Au+Au, Cu+Cu and Cu+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$200 GeV, 62 GeV and 39 GeV in mid ($|y|<$0.35) and forward rapidities ($1.2<|y|<2.2$).
