Description

In this work we study the nuclear effects in exotic meson production. We estimate the total cross section as a function of the energy for pPb scattering using a version of the color evaporation model (CEM) adapted to Double Parton Scattering (DPS). We found that the cross section grows significantly with the atomic number, indicating that the hypothesis of tetra-quark states can be tested in pA collisions at LHC. (authors)
