| contents | The suppression of the $ψ$(2S) nuclear modification factor has been seen as a trademark signature of final state effects in large collision systems for decades. In small systems, deviations of the nuclear modification from unity had been attributed to cold nuclear matter effects until the observation of strong differential suppression of the $ψ$(2S) state in $p/d+$A collisions, which suggests the presence of final state effects. In this paper, we present results of J/$ψ$ and $ψ$(2S) measurements in the dimuon decay channel for $p+p$, $p+$Al, and $p+$Au collision systems at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}$ = 200 GeV. Key results include the nuclear modification factors $R_{pA}$ as a function of centrality and rapidity. The measurements are compared with shadowing and transport model predictions, as well as to complementary measurements at LHC energies. |
