Abstract: (Elsevier)
We compute the effect on the J/ψ production in nucleus-nucleus coollisions of the absorption of the J/ψ inside the colliding nuclei. Using a value of the absorptive J/ψ-nucleon cross section which reproduces the A -dependence of the J/ψ cross section in hadron-nucleus collisions, we obtain much less suppression than that measured by the NA38 Collaboration. The effect due to a strongly absorbed ( A 0.7 ) component is also discussed. In order to explain the NA38 results one needs a very large contribution (50%) of the latter component.- NUCLEUS NUCLEUS: NUCLEAR REACTION
