Abstract
Heavy Quarkonium states modifications in relativistic heavy ion collisions have been of great interest since the proposal by Matsui and Satz of J/ψ suppression as a signature of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) formation. Recent studies suggest that the excited states χc, ψ(2 S ) and ϒ(3 S ) melt sequentially1,2 and the amount of observed suppression depends on the state and medium conditions. Therefore, this suppression pattern may be used as a probe of the medium temperature. In this work we present preliminary results on the charmonium and bottomnium measurements performed by the STAR experiment at RHIC for p + p and Cu + Cu collisions at [Formula: see text].
