We study contributions from color-octet quarkonium formation mechanisms to $p_\perp$-integrated $\psi'$ production cross sections in pion-nucleon reactions. The observed polarization of the $\psi'$ is not reproduced by the lowest-order…
We calculate the $\alpha_s$ corrections to the transverse polarization fraction of $\psi^\prime$'s produced at the Tevatron. If the `$\psi^\prime$-anomaly' is explained by gluon fragmentation into a colour octet Fock component of the…
Polarized heavy quarkonium productions in $Z^0$ decays are considered. We find that polarizations of the produced quarkonia are independent of that of the parent Z^0 provided that one considers the energy distribution or the total…
We study contributions from color-octet quarkonium formation mechanisms to $J/\psi$ hadroproduction at low $p_\perp$. We include transitions of color-octet $c\bar{c}$ states into ``direct'' $J/\psi$ and into $\chi_{1,2}$ which decay…

The direct production rate of $J/\psi$ via the color-octet mechanism is calculated at the $Z$ resonance. The color-octet production process $Z\to J/\psi q \bar q$ is shown to have a substantial branching ratio as well as a distinctive…
We consider the energy and the polar angle distributions of J/\psi's produced via the color-singlet and the color-octet (^3S_1^{(8)}) mechanisms in Z^0 \to J/\psi +X at LEP. Since both distributions of the J/\psi produced via color-octet…

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…
Gluon fragmentation represents the dominant source of high energy prompt quarkonia at hadron colliders. Fragmentation approximations break down, however, when a quarkonium's transverse momentum becomes comparable to its mass. In this paper,…
We have calculated the cross section of $\psi'$ photoproduction at small-$p_{T}$ regions in polarized $\gamma p$ collisions for testing the color-octet model, which is based on NRQCD factorization formalism. We show that the measurement of…
We have measured the polarizations of $\jpsi$ and $\psiprime$ mesons as functions of their transverse momentum $\pt$ when they are produced promptly in the rapidity range $|y|<0.6$ with $\pt \geq 5 \pgev$. The analysis is performed using a…
We investigate the inclusive production of double quarkonia ($J/\psi$, $\psi(2S)$, $\Upsilon$ mesons) in polarized hadron-hadron collisions, considering the kinematic configuration where the transverse momentum of each pair of bound states…
We calculated the color-octet contribution to the $\ps$ hadroproduction at fixed target energies $\sqrt(s)\simeq40$ GeV. We consider the $\ps$ production with transverse momenta which can not be explained by primordial motion of partons,…

We investigate the SM Higgs decays into heavy quarkonia J/\psi and \Upsilon in both color-singlet and color-octet mechanisms. It is found that in J/\psi production the contribution through color-octet processes overwhelm that in…
We present measurements of the polarization of the $ J/\psi $ produced in 800-GeV proton interactions with a copper target. Polarization of the $ J/\psi $ is sensitive to the $ c \bar{c} $ production and hadronization processes. A…
