Abstract

Muon-pair production has been measured in pCu, pU, OCu, OU and SU collisions at 200 GeV per nucleon. The cross sections are compatible with the atomic number dependence (Aproj.Atarg.)α where α=0.91±0.04 for the J/ψ resonance and α=1.01±0.04 for muon pairs produced in the mass continuum between 1.7 and 2.7 GeV/c2.
