Description
We present new results on quarkonia production in proton-lead
collisions, using the data collected in 2016 at 8.16 TeV nucleon-nucleon
center-of-mass energy, in the unique forward region (pseudorapidity
between 2 and 5) covered by the LHCb detector. Both forward and backward
rapidities are covered thanks to the possibility of beam reversal.
Measurements include J/psi and psi', where the prompt and from-b-decay
components can be disentangled, and the 1-- bottomonia states. The large
increase in size of the heavy flavour sample, compared to 5 TeV sample
collected in 2013, allows a remarkable improvement in the accuracy of
the determination of nuclear modification factors.
