Studying the production of J/$\psi$ (bound state of charm and anti-charm quark) in proton-proton collisions gives an opportunity to test quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations, as the production of J/$\psi$ involves both perturbative and…

The process pp--> W + J/psi provides a powerful probe of the production mechanism of charmonium in hadronic collisions, and is also sensitive to multiple parton interactions in the colliding protons. Using the 2011 ATLAS dataset of 4.5 fb-1…

The experimental ratio of $\psi'$ to $J/\psi$ is approximately a constant in $pA$ collisions, but decreases as the transverse energy increases in nucleus-nucleus collisions. These peculiar features can be explained as arising from…
The ALICE collaboration has studied the inclusive J/$\psi$ and $\psi(\mathrm{2S})$ production in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV at the CERN LHC. The J/$\psi$ measurement is performed in the $\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ ( - 4.46 <…

We consider a contribution to J/psi hadroproduction in which the meson production is mediated by three-gluon partonic state, with two gluons coming from the target and one gluon from the projectile. This mechanism involves double gluon…
The production of $J/\Psi$ mesons in central collisions of heavy nuclei is investigated as a function of collision energy. Two contributions are considered simultaneously: early (hard) production coupled with subsequent suppression in a…

The experimental results on the pion, strangeness and J/psi production in high energy nuclear collisions are discussed. The anomalous energy dependence of pion and strangeness production is consistent with the hypothesis that a transition…
We study the polarization of hyperon in different processes in singly polarized $pp$ collisions, in particular its relation to the polarized parton distributions. We show that by measuring hyperon polarization in particularly chosen…
