Abstract content

The production of charmonia J/\psi(1S) and \psi^\prime(2S) in the antiproton-nucleus reactions at p_{lab}=3-10 GeV/c is studied on the basis of the Glauber model taking into account nuclear Fermi motion effects [1,2]. The main reaction channel is charmonium formation in an antiproton-proton collision. We show that the target mass dependence of the charmonium transparency ratio allows to determine the genuine charmonium-nucleon dissociation cross section. This is contrasted to the J/\psi photoproduction at high energies (E_\gamma=20 and 120 GeV), where charmonium formation length is large which blurs the sensitivity of the transparency ratio to the charmonium-nucleon dissociation cross section. Furthermore, the polarization effects in the production of \chi_{c2}(1P) states are evaluated within the generalized eikonal approximation [3]. Finally, the new opportunities for the studies of the X,Y,Z noncharmonium candidates at PANDA experiment are discussed.
