J/ψ Elliptic Flow, High image Suppression and ϒ Measurements in A+A Collisions by the PHENIX Experiment. Original Research Article

Three measurements that broaden the scope of the experimental investigation of quarkonia modifications in heavy ion collisions are presented. Although the current statistical precision on the first two measurements does not allow one to draw significant conclusions, J/ψ elliptic flow and high pT suppression results are important proofs of principle measurements, and make the case for higher luminosities at RHIC. Finally, the first measurement of an upper limit on the nuclear modification RAA of dielectrons in the ϒ mass region in Au+Au collisions is presented. The
