What is recorded here?
Proposed that colour screening in a quark-gluon plasma would inhibit J/psi formation and could provide an experimentally useful signature of plasma formation.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
The record is the exact two-author 1986 theoretical proposal. It is not a direct observation, does not make suppression a unique diagnostic under every later experimental condition and does not absorb subsequent quarkonium phenomenology.
