Measurements of cold nuclear matter effects in J/Psi in the PHENIX experiment via deutron-gold collisions
Author
Summary, in English
A new calculation of RdAu has been performed using the 2003 d+Au data and the higher-statistics 2005 p+p data. These nuclear modification factors are compared to calculations using nuclear-modified PDFs and a J/ψ breakup cross section is extracted. These values are then used to project the cold nuclear matter effects in Au+Au collisions. Additionally, a more data-driven projection is performed.
