Unresolved questions in J/{psi} production and propagation in nuclei

Conference ·
OSTI ID:677204
In order to understand the J/{psi} suppression arising from the possible occurrence of the quark-gluon plasma in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, it is necessary to have a comprehensive picture how the J/{psi} and its precursors are produced, what their properties after production are, and how the J/{psi} and its precursors propagate inside nuclear matter. There are unresolved questions in the descriptions of J/{psi} production and propagation. The author outlines some of these questions and discusses the approaches for their resolution.
