Exclusive J/psi and Upsilon hadroproduction and the QCD odderon

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We study pp and p\bar p collisions which lead to the exclusive production of J/psi or Upsilon from the pomeron-odderon and the pomeron-photon fusion. We calculate scattering amplitudes of these processes in the lowest order approximation and in the framework of k_T factorization. We present estimates of cross sections for the kinematic conditions of the Tevatron and of the LHC.
