We discuss the production mechanism of fully charm tetraquark, observed recently by the LHCb at M = 6.9 GeV in the $J/\psi J/\psi$ channel. Both single parton scattering (SPS) and double parton scattering (DPS) mechanisms are considered. We…
Transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) gluon distributions have different operator definitions, depending on the process under consideration. We study that aspect of TMD factorization in the small-x limit, for the various unpolarized TMD gluon…
