Abstract
The PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has measured the differential cross section of -meson production at forward rapidity in collisions at via the dimuon decay channel. The partial cross section in the rapidity and ranges and is . The energy dependence of () is studied using the PHENIX measurements at and 510 GeV and the Large Hadron Collider measurements at and 7 TeV. The experimental results are compared to various event generator predictions (pythia6, pythia8, phojet, ampt, epos3, and epos-lhc).
