Abstract

Motivated by the success of Modified Non-Relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (Modified NRQCD) in explaining data from experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for charmonia, we now turn to the study of bottomonium production at the LHC. Modified NRQCD does very well in explaining Υ\Upsilon data from the LHC. But this is true also of NRQCD which explains the Υ\Upsilon data equally well. Where the two models differ substantially is in their predictions for ηb\eta_b production. As was the case with ηc\eta_c, the measurement of ηb\eta_b production at the LHC will be another decisive test of Modified NRQCD.
