Possibility for $J/Ψ$ suppression in high multiplicity proton-proton
collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=7\,$TeV
   [PDF]

Thomas Lang, Marcus Bleicher
We study $J/\Psi$ absorption in high multiplicity proton-proton (pp) collisions at $\sqrt {s_{NN}}=7\,$TeV. We predict a modification of the $J/\Psi$-yield within the UrQMD transport approach, where explicit interactions of the $J/\Psi$ with the surrounding comovers and a prehadronic phase with adjusted cross sections and $J/\Psi$ melting is included. We present the analog of the nuclear modification factor in pp collisions at various charged particle multiplicities. It turns out that $J/\Psi$-Mesons may be suppressed towards higher particle multiplicities in pp collisions at LHC energies.
