Abstract: (APS)
We discuss the effect of “color transparency” on J/ψ, ψ′, and χ photoproduction off nuclear targets. We find (contrary to the conclusion of other authors) that it is not an important effect for J/ψ production at present energies, so that existing experimental extractions ofσψN should be reliable. It may, however, be important when determining σψ′N andσχN. © 1990 The American Physical Society
