Abstract
TheJ/Ψ suppression in relativistic heavy ion collisions through final state interactions with excited state nucleons is estimated in a manner analogous to that of Gerschel and Hufner for ground state nucleons. If excited state nucleons are larger in size than nucleons in their ground state, theJ/Ψ absorption cross section is increased. Because of relativistic time dilation this effect does not significantly alter theJ/Ψ suppression previously found.
