Measurements of inclusive and non-prompt J/ψ production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8 TeV in ALICE at the LHC — •Minjung Kim for the ALICE collaboration — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Heidelberg
The measurement of J/ψ production in p–Pb collisions is an important probe to study possible cold nuclear matter effects as well as final state mechanisms, which can affect its production. In ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment), J/ψ production has been measured in the dielectron decay channel at mid-rapidity as well as in the dimuon decay channel at forward rapidity.In the recent data taking period (Run 2), ALICE collected an enriched sample of high–pT electron candidates using the electron trigger of the Transition Radiation Detector (TRD). In addition, J/ψ from weak decays of beauty hadrons (non-prompt J/ψ), can be separately at mid-rapidity due to the excellent primary and secondary vertex as well as impact parameter resolution of the Inner Tracking System (ITS). In this talk, we will present the status of the inclusive and non-prompt J/ψ measurement in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16TeV with the TRD triggered data. This work was supported by BMBF.
