Influence of the Nucleon Hard Partons Distribution on J/ Suppression in a GMC Framework
Abstract
In a Glauber Monte Carlo framework, taking account of the transverse spatial distribution of hard partons in the nucleon, we analyse the nuclear modification factor RdAu for J/ in d+Au collisions with the EPS09 shadowing parametrization. After the influence of nucleon hard partons distribution is considered, a clearly upward correction is revealed for the dependence of RdAu on Ncoll in peripheral d+Au collisions, however, an unconspicuous correction is shown for the results versus pT. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental data from PHENIX.
