The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.6 nb-1. The mesons of transverse momenta up to 15 GeV/c are reconstructed in the dimuon decay mode. The rapidity coverage in the centre-of-mass system is 1.5 < y < 4.0 (forward region) and -5.0 < y < -2.5 (backward regio...
