Measurement of the $\psi(2S)$ to $J/\psi$ cross-section ratio as a function of centrality in PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\text{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV
The dissociation of quarkonium states with different binding energies produced in heavy-ion collisions is a powerful probe for investigating the formation and properties of the quark-gluon plasma. The ratio of production cross-sections of $\psi(2S)$ and $J/\psi$ mesons times the ratio of their branc...

Zusammenfassung: | The dissociation of quarkonium states with different binding energies
produced in heavy-ion collisions is a powerful probe for investigating the
formation and properties of the quark-gluon plasma. The ratio of production
cross-sections of $\psi(2S)$ and $J/\psi$ mesons times the ratio of their
branching fractions into the dimuon final state is measured as a function of
centrality using data collected by the LHCb detector in PbPb collisions at
$\sqrt{s_{\text{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV. The measured ratio shows no dependence on
the collision centrality, and is compared to the latest theory predictions and
to the recent measurements in literature. |
