Zusammenfassung:CERN for the benefit of the ATLAS collaboration. A measurement of $J/\psi $ and $\psi (2\mathrm {S})$ production is presented. It is based on a data sample from Pb+Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV and pp collisions at $ \sqrt{s}$=5.02 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2015, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.42 nb-1 and 25 pb-1 in Pb+Pb and pp, respectively. The measurements of per-event yields, nuclear modification factors, and non-prompt fractions are performed in the dimuon decay channel for 9 < p$\mathbb μμ\atop{T}$ < 40 GeV in dimuon transverse momentum, and -2 < yμμ < 2 in rapidity. Strong suppression is found in Pb+Pb collisions for both prompt and non-prompt $J/\psi $, increasing with event centrality. The suppression of prompt $\psi (2\mathrm {S})$ is observed to be stronger than that of $J/\psi $, while the suppression of non-prompt $\psi (2\mathrm {S})$ is equal to that of the non-prompt $J/\psi $ within uncertainties, consistent with the expectation that both arise from b-quarks propagating through the medium. Despite prompt and non-prompt $J/\psi $ arising from different mechanisms, the dependence of their nuclear modification factors on centrality is found to be quite similar.
