We calculate the direct production rate of $J/\psi$ in top quark decays. The color-octet $J/\psi$ production via $t\rightarrow W^+ b J/\psi$ is shown to have a large branching ratio of order $1.5\times 10^{-4}$, which is over an order of…

We build a "bottom-up" holographic model of charmonium by matching the essential spectral data. We argue that this data must include not only the masses but also the decay constants of the J/psi and psi' mesons. Relative to the "soft-wall"…
Quarkonia have been studied in different collision system and energy in order to understand the effects of the hot and dense medium created in heavy-ion collisions. CMS is well suited to measure quarkonia decays to muons given the muon…
