Résumé

YerPhI, Yerevan, Armenia Charmonium production in p-A collisions is a unique tool for the study of the interaction of bound cc̄ states in nuclear matter. It can provide details on the basic features of the resonance formation mechanism and, in particular, on its non-perturbative aspects. In this Letter, we present an experimental study of charmonia and Drell-Yan production in proton-nucleus collisions at 450 GeV/c. The results are analyzed in the framework of the Glauber model and lead to the values of the nuclear absorption cross-section apbS σabs pA for J/ψ and ψ'. Then, we compare the J/ψ absorption in proton-nucleus and sulphur-uranium interactions, using NA38 data. We obtain that, for the J/ψ, σabs pA and σabs SU are compatible, showing that no sizeable additional suppression mechanism is present in S-U collisions, and confirming that the anomalous J/Σ suppression only sets in for Pb-Pb interactions.
