Dr Katharina Mueller (University of Zurich)

Description

The LHCb collaboration studied the production of J/ψ and Upsilon mesons in proton-lead collisions at a proton nucleon centre-of-mass energy √sNN = 5 TeV. The measurements have been used to determine the nuclear modification factor and to compare the results with theoretical predictions. A measurement of Z boson production in proton-lead collisions is presented as well. The analyses are based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 1 nb−1.
