Résumé

The observation of an anomalous J/ψ suppression in Pb-Pb collisions by the NA50 Collaboration can be considered as the most striking indication for the deconfinement of quarks and gluons at SPS energies. In this Letter, we determine the J/ψ suppression pattern as a function of the forward hadronic energy E_ZDC measured in a Zero Degree Calorimeter (ZDC). The direct connection between E_ZDC and the geometry of the collision allows us to calculate, within a Glauber approach, the precise relation between the number of participant nucleons N_part and E_ZDC. Then, we check if the experimental data can be better explained by a sudden or a smooth onset of the anomalous J/ψ suppression as a function of the number of participants.
