  "abstract": "We study the production of cc~ pairs in nuclear reactions at SPS energies within the covariant transport approach HSD. The production of cc~ is treated perturbatively employing experimental cross sections while the interactions of cc~ pairs with baryons are included by conventional cascade-type two-body collisions. Adopting 6 mb for the cc~-baryon cross sections the data on J/\\Psi suppression in p+A reactions are reproduced in line with calculations based on the Glauber model. Additionally the dissociation of the cc~ pairs by strings is included in a purely geometrical way. We find good agreement with experimental data from the NA38 and NA50 collaboration with an estimate for the string radius of ~0.2-0.3 fm.",
