We briefly review the existing psi(2S) data taken at RHIC, the Tevatron and the LHC. We systematically compare them with colour-singlet-model predictions as a function of the center-of-mass energy, of the quarkonium rapidity and of the…

In this paper, we analyze the $1 \rightarrow 4$ decay channel for the production of doubly heavy quarkonium, $(b\bar{c})$ or $(c\bar{c})$, via top-quark decays, $t \to (b\bar{c}) + c + c + \bar{s}$ and $t \to (c\bar{c}) + b + c + \bar{s}$,…
Recently we have proved the factorization of NRQCD S-wave heavy quarkonium production at all orders in coupling constant. In this paper we extend this to prove the factorization of infrared divergences in $\chi_{cJ}$ production from color…
Direct $J/\psi$ and $\psi'$ production rates at Tevatron are calculated in the $k_t$-factorization approach within the color-singlet model. In this approach, the production rates are enhanced by a factor of 20 compared to the naive…
Relativistic corrections to the color-singlet J/\psi hadroproduction at the Tevatron and LHC are calculated up to O(v^2) in nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD). The short distance coefficients are obtained by matching full QCD with NRQCD results…
We examine the possibility that a new strong interaction is accessible to the Tevatron and the LHC. In an effective theory approach, we consider a scenario with a new color-octet interaction with strong couplings to the top quark, as well…
Hard diffractive photo- and electroproduction of heavy vector mesons ($J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$) is evaluated within the leading $\alpha_s\ln{Q^2 \over\Lambda_{QCD}^2}$ approximation of QCD. In difference from our earlier work on that…
In this work, we calculate the $h_c(^1P_1)$ production rate at the LHC to leading order of the strong coupling constant, for both color-singlet and -octet mechanisms. Numerical results show that a considerable number of $h_c$ events with…
