Abstract
Early data of the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC will allow us to measure the cross sections for beauty and heavy quarkonia production in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 14 TeV to a reasonable precision. Different experimental approaches employing single or di-muon triggered events and b-tagging methods are discussed. The potential for extracting the polarization of vector states from the decays J/psi to mu+ mu- and Y to mu+ mu- is presented.
