Abstract
We study the clustering of colour strings in the transverse plane of nucleus–nucleus collisions and argue that deconfinement sets in when the string density within a cluster reaches a critical value. We show that this implies a minimal cluster size at the onset of deconfinement, which in turn results in discontinuous behaviour for J/ ψ suppression.
