I review the status of the extraction of NRQCD color-octet $J/\psi$ production matrix elements. Large theoretical uncertainties in current extractions from hadroproduction and photoproduction are emphasized. Leptoproduction of $J/\psi$ is…

Photoproduction of $J/\psi$ is considered including the color-octet contributions from the various partial wave states, $^{2S+1}L_J$ = $^1S_0$, $^3S_1$ and $^3P_J$. The production cross section depends on three new nonperturbative…
We study leptoproduction of $J/\psi$ at large $Q^2$ within the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization formalism. The cross section is dominated by color-octet terms that are of order $\alpha_s$. The color-singlet term, which is of order…
We study the phenomenology of fixed-target elastic $J/\psi$ photoproduction in the NRQCD factorization formalism. Our the goal is to test an essential feature of this formalism --- the color-octet mechanism. We obtain an order-of-magnitude…
We have calculated the leading color-octet contributions to the production of $J/\psi$ particles in photon-proton collisions. Using the values for the color-octet matrix elements extracted from fits to prompt $J/\psi$ data at the Tevatron,…
An unresolved problem in J/psi phenomenology is a systematic understanding of the differential photoproduction cross section, dsigma/dz [gamma + p -> J/psi + X], where z= E_psi/E_gamma in the proton rest frame. In the non-relativistic QCD…
I compute the leading color-octet contributions to the process $\gamma + p \to J/\psi + \gamma (+ X)$ within the non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization formalism. In the color-singlet model, $J/\psi + \gamma$ can only be produced when…
We investigate $J/\psi$ production at a Photon Linear Collider (PLC) in the framework of NRQCD factorization approach. It was shown that color octet contribution is dominating in charmonium production at PLC. The main fraction of $J/\psi$…
We present a calculation for the photoproduction of $\eta_c$ under the framework of NRQCD factorization formalism. We find a quite unique feature that the color-singlet contribution to this process vanishes at not only the leading order but…

We study J/\psi production at fixed-target energies, including the colour-octet production mechanisms predicted by NRQCD. In an earlier paper, we found that the octet components were crucial in understanding p_T-integrated forward (x_F > 0)…
We consider J/psi photoproduction in e+ e- as well as linear photon colliders. We find that the process is dominated by the resolved photon channel. Both the once-resolved and twice-resolved cross-sections are sensitive to (different…
