Digluon contribution to $J/\psi$ production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2019-04-26 v2

Abstract

In this paper we study the contribution of the double parton distributions of gluons to the charmonium production. Despite being suppressed in the heavy quark mass limit, numerically this contribution gives a sizeable correction to the leading order kTk_{T} factorization result in LHC kinematics due to enhancement of gluonic densities in the small Bjorken xBx_{B} limit. This contribution is not suppressed at large J/ψJ/\psi momenta pTp_{T} and thus presents one of the complementary mechanisms of charmonia production in this kinematics.
