Heavy Quarkonia Perspectives with Heavy-Ions in ATLAS

ATLAS will study a full range of observables and phenomena which characterize the hot dense medium formed in heavy-ion collisions, and in particular heavy quarkonia suppression which provides a handle on deconfinement mechanisms. As each quark-antiquark bound state is predicted to dissociate at a di...

description ATLAS will study a full range of observables and phenomena which characterize the hot dense medium formed in heavy-ion collisions, and in particular heavy quarkonia suppression which provides a handle on deconfinement mechanisms. As each quark-antiquark bound state is predicted to dissociate at a different temperature, the systematic measurement of the suppression of these resonances should provide some sort of thermometer of the early stage of the system evolution. We report on an evaluation of the ATLAS potential to measure resonances of the Upsilon and J/psi families created in Pb+Pb collisions.
