A-dependenc of psi production in. pi. /sup -/ nucleus collisions at 530 GeV/c

Conference · · AIP Conf. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6453585
The E672/E706 Spectrometer, located in the MW beam at Fermilab, was used to collect data on events containing a pair of muons in the final state with large effective mass. The momentum of incident pions and protons was 530 GeV/c. Nuclear targets included Be, C, Al, Cu and Pb. We report on a preliminary measurement of the A-dependence of the per nucleus cross section for forward J/psi production. The apparatus also detected charged particles and ..gamma..'s produced in association with the muon pair. The expected physics results on the hadroproduction of chi states and beauty particles are discussed.
