Nuclear dependence of light neutral meson production in p-A collisions at 400 GeV with NA60

R. Arnaldi, K. Banicz, K. Borer +51

The NA60 experiment has studied low-mass muon pair production in proton-nucleus collisions with a system of Be, Cu, In, W, Pb and U targets, using a 400 GeV proton beam at the CERN…

Precision study of the and electromagnetic transition form-factors and of the line shape in NA60

NA60 Collaboration

The NA60 experiment studied low-mass muon pair production in proton-nucleus (p-A) collisions using a 400~GeV proton beam at the CERN SPS. The low-mass dimuon spectrum is well descr…

Quarkonium production in the LHC era: a polarized perspective

Pietro Faccioli, Valentin Knuenz, Carlos Lourenco +2

Polarization measurements are usually considered as the most difficult challenge for the QCD description of quarkonium production. In fact, global data fits for the determination o…

A comparative measurement of and in In-In collisions at the CERN SPS

NA60 Collaboration, R. Arnaldi, K. Banicz +49

The NA60 experiment at the CERN SPS has studied meson production in In-In collisions at 158A GeV via both the and the decay channels. The yields and inverse s…

Heavy quarkonium: progress, puzzles, and opportunities

N. Brambilla, S. Eidelman, B. K. Heltsley +64

A golden age for heavy quarkonium physics dawned a decade ago, initiated by the confluence of exciting advances in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and an explosion of related experime…

Towards the experimental clarification of quarkonium polarization

Pietro Faccioli, Carlos Lourenco, Joao Seixas +1

We highlight issues which are often underestimated in the experimental analyses on quarkonium polarization: the relation between the parameters of the angular distributions and the…
