Abstract

We present new data on the Feynman-

x

dependence of

ϒ

production in proton-tungsten collisions at a proton-beam momentum of 400 GeV/c. Comparing these data with the well-understood Drell-Yan dimuon continuum, we conclude that the

ϒ

production mechanism must be qualitatively different.
