| contents | A novel observable, the double nuclear modification factor, is proposed to probe simultaneously the initial and final state effects in nucleus-nucleus collisions. An interesting competition between the combinatorial enhancement in the double parton scattering and the suppression due to parton energy loss can be observed in the production rate of two hard particles. In particular, the production of $J/ψ$ mesons in association with a $W$ boson is not suppressed but is enhanced in the region of moderate transverse momenta, unlike the case of unassociated (inclusive) $J/ψ$ production. At the same time, in the region of high enough transverse momenta the nuclear modification factor for associated $J/ψ+W$ production converges to that of unassociated $J/ψ$. |
