J/ψ production via χc decays in 920 GeV pA interactions [J-\psi Production via \chi_c Decays in 920 GeV pA Interactions]
Using data collected by the HERA-B experiment, we have measured the fraction of J/ψ's produced via radiative χc decays in interactions of 920 GeV protons with carbon and titanium targets. We obtained Rχc= 0.32±0.06<sub>stat</sub>±0.04<sub>sys</sub> for the fraction of J/ψ from χc decays averaged over proton–carbon and proton–titanium collisions. This result is in agreement with previous measurements and is compared with theoretical predictions
