Quarkonium as a tool: cold nuclear matter effects
arXiv:1106.1036 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2011.03.074
Abstract
We discuss the quarkonium production as a tool for the study of the Quark Gluon Plasma. In particular, we concentrate on the Cold Nuclear Matter effetcs. We show that quarkonium production is also useful for the study of Quantum Chromodynamics first principles and the nuclear Parton Distribution Functions.
