Abstract

The study of oxygen-uranium reactions at 200 GeV/nucleon shows a significant transverse energy dependence of the yield of J Ψ's relative to muon pairs produced in the mass continuum. This feature, observed for the first time, is in agreement with predictions from quark-gluon plasma formation, although alternative explanations by hadronic effects cannot be ruled out at this stage.
