Transverse polarization of ${}^3 S_1$ charmonium states, produced directly in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at asymptotically large transverse momentum p_t, has emerged as the most prominent test of color octet contributions and spin symmetry in…
A study is presented of central exclusive production of $\Upsilon(nS)$ states, where the $\Upsilon(nS)$ resonances decay to the $\mu^+\mu^-$ final state, using $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment. The cross-section is…
The exclusive photoproduction of upsilon states $\Upsilon(1S)$ and its radially excited states $\Upsilon(2S,3S)$ is investigated in the context of ultra-peripheral collisions at the LHC energies. Predictions are presented for their…
We discuss the photoproduction of $\Upsilon$ and $J/\psi$ at high energy $\bar{p}p$, $pp$ and heavy ion colliders. We predict large rates in $\bar{p}p$ interactions at the Fermilab Tevatron %and in heavy-ion interactions at the CERN LHC.…
The LHC quarkonium production measurements reveal a startling observation: the J/$\psi$, $\psi$(2S), $\chi_{c1,2}$ and $\Upsilon$(nS) $p_{\rm T}$-differential cross sections are compatible with one universal momentum scaling pattern.…
We present the first $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$ measurements in the di-muon decay channel at mid-rapidity at RHIC using the newly installed Muon Telescope Detector. In p$+$p collisions at $\sqrt{s}=500$~GeV, inclusive $J/\psi$ cross section…
ALICE has measured quarkonium production in p-Pb collisions at backward ($-$4.46 $<$ $y_{\rm cms}$ $<$ $-$2.96), mid ($-$1.37 $<$ $y_{\rm cms}$ $<$ 0.43) and forward (2.03 $<$ $y_{\rm cms}$ $<$ 3.53) rapidity ($y$) regions down to zero…
Based on the non-relativistic QCD factorization scheme, we study the hadroproduction of the bottomonium states $\Upsilon(5S)$ and $\Upsilon(6S)$. We argue to search for them in the final states $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)\pi^+\pi^-$, which are…
We calculate the polarisation of $\psi$'s and $\Upsilon$'s produced by the fragmentation of heavy quarks. We find that fragmentation to transversely aligned quarkonium is slightly enhanced relative to longitudinally polarised. This net…
Polarization measurements are the best instrument to understand how quark and antiquark combine into the different quarkonium states, but no model has so far succeeded in explaining the measured J/psi and Upsilon polarizations. On the other…
We discuss the impact on the study of gluon transverse momentum dependent distributions (TMDs) of the associated production of a lepton pair and a $\Upsilon$ (or a $J/\psi$) in unpolarised proton-proton collisions, $pp\to {\cal Q} \, \ell…
Correct description of quarkonia production and kinematics are still one of the most challenging assignments for Quantum Chromodynamics. This document presents a study of the $\Upsilon$(1S), (2S) and (3S) mean transverse momentum ($\langle…
Thirty years ago, the suppression of quarkonium production in heavy-ion collisions was first proposed as an unambiguous signature for the formation of a Quark-Gluon Plasma. Recent results from the LHC run 2 have led to an unprecedented…
The studies of heavy quarkonium inclusive production and polarization at LHC are becoming crucial to solve the puzzle of hadron formation. The results by CMS and the other LHC experiments are compactly presented for the five S-wave states…
We report the results on heavy quarkonium production in p+p and Au+Au collisions at midrapidity via the dielectron decay channel at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV from the STAR experiment at RHIC. Results on the J/psi p_T spectra in p+p collisions…
In order to disentangle CNM effects from the ``hot'' QGP effects, quarkonium production is studied in p--Pb collisions in which QGP formation is not expected. ALICE has measured the $\Upsilon$ production in p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm…
The ratios of the production cross sections between the excited $\Upsilon$(2S) and $\Upsilon$(3S) mesons and the $\Upsilon$(1S) ground state, detected via their decay into two muons, are studied as a function of the number of charged…

In this proceedings, we report the latest results of J/psi and Upsilon production from the STAR experiment at RHIC, in different colliding systems and colliding energies. J/psi nuclear modification factors (R_{AA}) in Au+Au collisions at…
We investigate the inclusive hadroproduction of a heavy quarkonium ($J/\psi$ or $\Upsilon$), in association with a light-flavored jet, as a testing ground for the semi-hard regime of QCD. Our theoretical setup is the hybrid high-energy and…
