Description
The dimuon production in 200 GeV/nucleon O-U, O-Cu, S-U and p-U reactions is studied in function of transverse energy ET produced by the collision. The J/Ψ production relative to continuum events is suppressed for heavy ion induced reactions when ET increases. This suppression is enhanced at low transverse momentum. The π and K meson distributions extracted from the data, have, for each reaction, a similar average transverse momentum which increases only slightly with the transverse energy. (orig.)
