Anti-shadowing Effect on Charmonium Production at a Fixed-target Experiment Using LHC Beams

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate charmonium production in Pb+Pb collisions at LHC beam energy ElabE_{\text {lab}}=2.76 A TeV at fixed-target experiment (sNN\sqrt {s_{\text{NN}}}=72 GeV). In the frame of a transport approach including cold and hot nuclear matter effects on charmonium evolution, we focus on the anti-shadowing effect on the nuclear modification factors RAAR_{AA} and rAAr_{AA} for the J/ψJ/ψ yield and transverse momentum. The yield is more suppressed at less forward rapidity (ylab≃y_\text{lab}\simeq2) than that at very forward rapidity (ylab≃y_\text{lab}\simeq4) due to the shadowing and anti-shadowing in different rapidity bins.
