Heavy quark state production in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=5.02 TeV

Abstract

We estimate differential rapidity cross sections for $J/\Psi$, $\Psi (2S)$, ${\rm Y}(1S)$, ${\rm Y}(2S)$, and ${\rm Y}(3S)$ production via Pb-Pb collisions at proton-proton energy $\equiv \sqrt{s_{pp}}$ =5.02 TeV. For the $\Psi (2S)$, ${\rm Y}(3S)$ states we use the mixed heavy quark hyrid theory, with these states being approximately 50\% standard and 50\% hybrid charmonium, bottomonium meson states. This is an extension of previous work on heavy quark state production via Cu-Cu and Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{pp}}$=200 GeV.
