It is found that the predicted production ratio $σ(ψ^{\prime})/σ(J/ψ)$ at positive $x_F$ in A-p collisions is mainly determined by nuclear absorption, and hence allows direct experimental test of nuclear absorption scenarios.12 pages(REVTeX), 3 uuencoded figuresHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyDifferent Nuclear Dependence of $J/ψ$ and $ψ^{\prime}$ Production in p-A and A-p Collisionstext
