Nuclear effects in J/ψ hadroproduction

A phenomenological picture of the parton recombination model for shadowing at small values of x is applied to hadron-nucleus J/ψ production. Agreement with experimental data is obtained provided that a further suppression of J/ψ production inside the nucleus is taken into account.
