Charm meson interactions in hadronic matter

Description

Both charmonium and charm mesons are relevant for finding the signatures of the quark-gluon plasma formed in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. To study their interactions in hadronic matter, a hadronic Lagrangian based on the SU(4) flavor gauge invariance has been introduced. With coupling constants determined either empirically or by the SU(4) symmetry, the absorption of j/Ψand the scattering cross sections of D and D+- by π and ρ mesons are found to be appreciable.
