D and J/ψ production from deconfined matter in relativistic heavy ion collisions

  • Published:
Acta Physica Hungarica Series A, Heavy Ion Physics

Abstract

We study the production of the D and J/ψ mesons from deconfined quark matter at CERN SPS energy. Using the MICOR microscopical coalescence model we determine the transverse momentum spectra of these charm mesons. We predict the slopes of their transverse momentum spectra in Pb+Pb collision at 158 GeV/nucleon beam energy.
