Description
J/$\psi$ production provides a particular sensitivity to the medium, which can be produced in heavy-ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies as delivered by the LHC. The vacuum production is modeled by a reference measured in proton-proton collisions and potential initial-state effects can be constrained using p-Pb collisions in the same collision-energy regime.
In this contribution J/$\psi$ production measured at mid-rapidity ($|y|<0.9$) with the ALICE detector down to zero transverse momentum is presented. Final results of the proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 5.02$ TeV collected in 2017 are presented which serve also as a high-precision reference for the nuclear modification factors in p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at the corresponding centre-of-mass collision energy. The status of the analysis of the nuclear modification factor and the separation of the prompt and non-prompt components of J/$\psi$ production in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 8.16$ TeV is shown. Available models are confronted with the data.
