Strong ``anomalous\" J/\\psi suppression in Pb-Pb collisions has been reported at this Conference by the NA50 Collaboration. Is this suppression really anomalous? Can we conclude that the quark-gluon plasma is already discovered? What has to be done next? I address these questions basing on the current theoretical understanding of quarkonium production and new precise experimental information.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-09-05T10:57:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quarkonium production", "color deconfinement", "nuclear collisions", "suppression", "precise experimental information" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
