Zusammenfassung:The nuclear modification factors of $${\mathrm {J}/\psi }$$ J / ψ and $$\psi \text {(2S)}$$ ψ (2S) mesons are measured in $$\text {PbPb}$$ PbPb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of $$\sqrt{\smash [b]{s_{_{\text {NN}}} = 5.02\,\text {Te}\text {V} $$ s NN = 5.02 TeV . The analysis is based on $$\text {PbPb}$$ PbPb and $$\mathrm {p}\mathrm {p}$$ p p data samples collected by CMS at the LHC in 2015, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 464 $$\,\mu \mathrm {b}^{-1}$$ μ b - 1 and 28 $$\,\text {pb}^\text {-1}$$ pb -1 , respectively. The measurements are performed in the dimuon rapidity range of $$|y | < 2.4$$ | y | < 2.4 as a function of centrality, rapidity, and transverse momentum ( $$p_{\mathrm {T}}$$ p T ) from $$p_{\mathrm {T}} =3$$ p T = 3 $${\,\text {Ge}\text {V}/}\text {c}$$ GeV / c in the most forward region and up to 50 $${\,\text {Ge}\text {V}/}\text {c}$$ GeV / c . Both prompt and nonprompt (coming from b hadron decays) $${\mathrm {J}/\psi }$$ J / ψ mesons are observed to be increasingly suppressed with centrality, with a magnitude similar to the one observed at $$\sqrt{\smash [b]{s_{_{\text {NN}}} = 2.76\,\text {Te}\text {V} $$ s NN = 2.76 TeV for the two $${\mathrm {J}/\psi }$$ J / ψ meson components. No dependence on rapidity is observed for either prompt or nonprompt $${\mathrm {J}/\psi }$$ J / ψ mesons. An indication of a lower prompt $${\mathrm {J}/\psi }$$ J / ψ meson suppression at $$p_{\mathrm {T}} > 25$$ p T > 25 $${\,\text {Ge}\text {V}/}\text {c}$$ GeV / c is seen with respect to that observed at intermediate $$p_{\mathrm {T}}$$ p T . The prompt $$\psi \text {(2S)}$$ ψ (2S) meson yield is found to be more suppressed than that of the prompt $${\mathrm {J}/\psi }$$ J / ψ mesons in the entire $$p_{\mathrm {T}}$$ p T range.
