d'Enterria, D.; Ballintijn, M.; Bedjidian, M.; Hofman, D.; Kodolova, O.; Loizides, C.; Lokthin, I. P.; Lourenço, C.; Mironov, C.; Petrushanko, S. V.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T20:22:10Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2007-11-01; This report presents the capabilities of the CMS experiment to explore the rich heavy-ion physics programme offered by the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collisions of lead nuclei at energies , will probe quark and gluon matter at unprecedented values of energy density. The prime goal of this res...
The dependence of the anomalous J/psi suppression on the number of participant ...
M. C. Abreu; Alessandro, B.; Alexa, C.; Arnaldi, R.; Atayan, M.; Baglin, C.; Baldit, A.; Bedjidian, M.; Beole, S.; Boldea, V.; Bordalo, P.; Borges, G.The observation of an anomalous J/psi suppression in Pb-Pb collisions by the NA50 Collaboration can be considered as the most striking indication for the deconfinement of quarks and gluons at SPS energies. In this Letter, we determine the J/psi suppression pattern as a function of the forward hadronic energy E-ZDC measured in a Zero Degree Calorimeter (ZDC). The direct connection between EZDC and the geometry o...
