In this paper we investigate the inclusive associated production of {\Upsilon} + {\gamma} at the hadron collider. We calculate the color-singlet sub-processes and all three color-octet sub-processes at the next-to-leading order. Seven sets…
Based on nonrelativistic QCD factorization scheme, we present the first complete next-to-leading order study on the yield and polarization of Upsilon(1S,2S,3S) hadroproduction. By using the color-octet long-distance matrix elements obtained…
The conventional color-singlet model was challenged by the recent data on quarkonium production. Discrepancies in production rates were observed at the Tevatron, at LEP, and in fixed-target experiments. The newly advocated color-octet…
We study the associated production of bottomonia and Higgs bosons at hadron colliders within the factorization formalism of nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics providing all contributing partonic cross sections in analytic form. While…
We update the theoretical predictions for direct Y(nS) hadroproduction in the framework of NRQCD. We show that the next-to-leading order corrections in alpha_s to the color-singlet transition significantly raise the differential cross…
We report that, unlike most inclusive quarkonium-production processes, the production rate for p p -> J/psi+Upsilon+X dominantly depends on two not well-known long-distance nonrelativistic QCD matrix elements, <O_8^{J/psi}(^3S_1)> and…
We give an overview of the present status of knowledge of the production of J/psi, psi' and Upsilon in high-energy hadron collisions. We first present two early models, namely the Colour-Singlet Model (CSM) and the Colour-Evaporation Model…
We present a measurement of the polarization observed for bottomonium states produced in p-Cu collisions at sqrt(s)=38.8 GeV. The angular distribution of the decay dimuons of the Upsilon(1S) state show no polarization at small xF and pT but…
A measurement of the production of vector bottomonium states, $\varUpsilon(\textrm{1S})$, $\varUpsilon(\textrm{2S})$, and $\varUpsilon(\textrm{3S})$, in Pb+Pb and $pp$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV is…
We examine the use of hadronic event generators, such as Pythia or Herwig, to estimate the production rate of loosely-bound hadronic molecules, such as the deuteron and the X(3872). In the case of the deuteron, we point out that there are…
Recent results in studies of bottomonium especially relevant to charmonium are reviewed. This report covers dipion transition matrix elements, $\eta$ production in $\Upsilon$ transitions, $\Upsilon$ decays to invisible particles, a search…
The direct charmonium and bottomonium production rate observed at high-pt in pp-bar collisions at the Tevatron is factors of ten larger than predictions based on conventional perturbative QCD. We show that this excess can be accounted for…
We present the first complete study of $\Upsilon$ and prompt $J/\psi$ production from single-parton scattering, including the complete $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_S^6)$ color-singlet contribution, the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_S^2\alpha^2)$ electroweak…
We present in this work a study of large-\pt\ charmonium production in hadronic collisions. We work in the framework of the factorization model of Bodwin Braaten and Lepage, thereby including the color octet production mechanism, and…
We review a recent global analysis of inclusive single-charged-hadron production in high-energy colliding-beam experiments, which is performed at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the parton model of quantum chromodynamics endowed with…
The $\Upsilon(3S)$ production and polarization at high energies is studied in the framework of $k_T$-factorization approach. Our consideration is based on the non-relativistic QCD formalism for bound states formation and off-shell…
Properties of bottomonia (Upsilon, chi_b and Upsilon') in the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) are investigated by assessing inelastic reaction rates and their interplay with open-bottom states (b-quarks or B-mesons) and color-screening. The latter…
We show that the colour-singlet contributions to the hadroproduction of J/psi in association with a W boson are sizable, if not dominant over the colour-octet contributions. They are of two kinds, sg -> J/psi + c + W at alpha^3_S alpha and…
The $\Upsilon(2S)$ production and polarization at high energies is studied in the framework of $k_T$-factorization approach. Our consideration is based on the non-relativistic QCD formalism for bound states formation and off-shell…
Motivated by the success of Modified Non-Relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (Modified NRQCD) in explaining data from experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for charmonia, we now turn to the study of bottomonium production at the…
