Description

Using a Statistical Hadronization Model which includes charmed hadrons and charmonia, we describe thermal $J/\psi$ production on the hadronic as well as the partonic level under the assumption of detailed balance and entropy conservation. We investigate the dependence of the $J/\psi$ multiplicity on the primary model parameters, the freeze-out temperature and the baryochemical potential. We find a very strong dependence on the charm quark mass for the partonic description and discuss the implications for the effective dressed mass of the charm quark.
