    | Dear Friends:
    |
    | PHENIX intends to submit a paper on J/Psi production to Physical Review
    | Letters in one week. Please find the title and abstract below. The
    | results are essentially identical with those that have been shown at
    | recent meetings such as Intersections.
    |
    | Best regards,
    |
    | Bill

    | $J/\psi$ production from proton-proton collisions at
    | $\sqrt{s}$~=~200~GeV
    |
    |
    | $J/\psi$ production has been measured in proton-proton collisions at
    | $\sqrt{s}$~=~200~GeV over a wide rapidity and transverse momentum range
    | by the
    | PHENIX experiment at RHIC. Distributions of the rapidity and transverse
    | momentum, along with measurements of the mean transverse momentum and
    | total
    | production cross section are presented and compared to available
    | theoretical
    | calculations. The total $J/\psi$ cross section is 3.99 $\pm$ 0.61(stat)
    | $\pm$ 0.58(sys) $\pm$ 0.40(abs) $\mu$b. The mean transverse momentum is
    | 1.80
    | $\pm$ 0.23(stat) $\pm$ 0.16(sys) GeV/c.
