Abstract

We have developed a method of J/ψ reconstruction in the dielectron decay channel at protonnuclear (p-C and p-Au at an energy of 30 GeV) and nuclear-nuclear (Au-Au at an energy of 10 GeV/nucleon) collisions with the use of the CBM setup. The KFParticle package is used for reconstructing the topology of signal events. It is shown that the CBM setup allows accumulating considerable J/ψ statistics over a reasonable time interval at SIS100 energies.
