Abstract

We investigate near-threshold production of quarkonium resonances in cold nuclear matter through a phenomenologically motivated scaling theory with two exponents, which are fixed by existing data on near-threshold $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ production in proton-nucleus collisions. Interestingly, it seems possible to extend one of the exponents to the production of other mesons in cold nuclear matter. The scaling theory can be tested and refined in experiments at the upcoming high-intensity Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) accelerator complex at GSI.
