$\Psi$ and ${\rm Y}$ production via $\sqrt{s_{pp}}$=8 TeV p-Pb collisions

Abstract

We estimate differential rapidity cross sections for $\Psi$ and ${\rm Y}$ production via p-Pb collisions at 8 TeV. We use the mixed heavy quark hybrid theory in which the $J/\Psi (1S),{\rm Y}(1S),{\rm Y}(2S)$ are standard mesons while the $\Psi (2S)$ and ${\rm Y}(3S)$ are mixed hybrids, approximately 50% standard $|q\bar{q}>$ states and 50% hybrid $|q\bar{q}g>$ states. This is an extension of previous work on heavy-quark state production via A-A collisions at RHIC.
