(Color online) Invariant mass spectrum of $e^+e^-$ pairs inclusive in $p_T$ compared to expectations from the model of hadron decays for $p$+$p$ and for different Au+Au centrality classes. The charmed meson decay contribution based on PYTHIA [55] is included in the sum of sources (solid black line). The dotted line shows the contribution from charm calculated assuming an isotropic angular distribution. Statistical (bars) and systematic (boxes) uncertainties are shown separately. The systematic uncertainty on the expected hadronic sources is not shown: it ranges from ~10% in the $\pi^o$ region to ~30% in the region of the vector mesons. The uncertainty on the charm cross section, which dominates the IMR, is ~30% in both $p$+$p$ and in Au+Au collisions.

Mean PT^2 value at forward rapidities : absolute value of y belongs to [1.2;2.2] The mean PT is obtained with a phenomonological fit of the J/PSI distribution in PT of the form (1/(2*PI*PT))*D(SIG)/DPT = A ( 1+(PT/B)^2)^-6 .The systematic error includes the incertainty from the maximum shape deviation permitted by the point-to-point correlated errors and from allowing the exponent of the fit fonctionto be a free parameter.

J/PSI differential cross section times dilepton branching ratio versus rapidity.

Total cross-section for J/PSI production. The value of the total cross section has been determined by fitting the rapidity distribution with many theoretical and phenomenological shapes. The systematic error quotedwas estimated from the maximum variation allowed by shifting the mid and forward rapidity data independantely by their point-to-point correlated systematic errors.There is a +- 18 nanobarn normalization error in addition to the statistical and systematical errors shown.
