✦ Synopsis

J/ψ measurements in p+p and d+Au collisions serve as crucial references to understand the J/ψ production in Au + Au collisions at RHIC where quark gluon plasma (QGP) is expected to be formed. It also provides important clues to study various interesting phenomena such as the gluon shadowing and color glass condensate. We report the latest results from PHENIX experiment on J/ψ production in p + p and d + Au collisions at forward, backward and midrapidity. * for the full list of PHENIX authors and acknowledgements, see Appendix 'Collaboration' of this volume.
