Nuclear dependence coefficient for the Drell-Yan and J/ production
Define the nuclear dependence coefficient in terms of ratio
of transverse momentum spectrum in hadron-nucleus and in hadron-nucleon
collisions: . We argue that in small region, the
for the Drell-Yan and J/ production is given by a universal function:\
, where parameters a and b are completely determined by either
calculable quantities or independently measurable physical observables. We
demonstrate that this universal function is insensitive to the
A for normal nuclear targets. For a color deconfined nuclear medium, the
becomes strongly dependent on the A. We also show that our
for the Drell-Yan process is naturally linked to perturbatively
calculated at large without any free parameters, and the
is consistent with E772 data for all .Comment: latex, 28 pages, 10 figures, updated two figures, and add more
