Description
Quarkonium production is a direct probe of deconfinement in heavy-ion collisions. For J/$\psi$, a bound state of ${c}\bar{c}$ quarks, the (re-)generation is found to be the dominant production mechanism at low transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) and in central collisions at the LHC energies.In addition, the non-prompt component of J/$\psi$ production from b-hadron decays allows one to access the interaction of b-hadrons with the QGP down to low transverse momentum.
In this talk, the ALICE recent measurements of the quarkonium production in pp and Pb-Pb collisions will be shown. All the results will be compared with model calculations.
