We report on the results of a theoretical study of the central exclusive production of scalar $\chi_{c}(0^{+})$ meson via $\chi_{c0} \to \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ decay in high-energy hadron collisions at the RHIC, Tevatron and LHC. The corresponding…
We study the Central Exclusive Production (CEP) of chi_cJ and eta_c mesons at RHIC in proton-proton collisions. We consider the chi_cJ --> J/psi + gamma decay channels and, recalling that the J_z=0 suppression of the J=1,2 states can be…
We present predictions for the diffractive production of $\chi$ mesons in the central rapidity region usually covered by collider detectors. The predicted cross sections are based on the Bialas-Landshoff formalism for both exclusive and…
We present a range of physics results for central exclusive production processes at the LHC, using the new SuperChic 2 Monte Carlo event generator. This includes significant theoretical improvements and updates, most importantly a fully…
We consider exclusive double diffractive production of scalar \chi_c(0^+), axial-vector \chi_c(1^+) and tensor \chi_c(2^+) charmonia in proton-(anti)proton collisions at different energies. The corresponding amplitudes for these processes…
We consider a measurement of exclusive production of scalar $\chi_{c}(0^{++})$ meson in the proton-proton collisions at LHC and RHIC and in the proton-antiproton collisions at the Tevatron via $\chi_{c0} \to \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ decay. The…
We discuss central exclusive production (CEP) of the tensor $\chi_c(2^{+})$ meson in proton-(anti)proton collisions at Tevatron, RHIC and LHC energies. The amplitude for the process is derived within the $k_t$-factorisation approach.…
In CDF we have observed several exclusive processes: 2-photon --> e+e- and --> mu+mu-, photon+pomeron --> J/psi and psi(2S), and pomeron+pomeron --> chi_c. The cross sections agree with QED, HERA photoproduction data, and theoretical…
Central exclusive production (CEP) processes in high-energy proton -- (anti)proton collisions offer a very promising framework within which to study both novel aspects of QCD and new physics signals. Among the many interesting processes…
A technique for separating top quark production from Standard Model background events is introduced. It is applicable to the channel in which one top quark decays semi-leptonically and its anti-quark decays hadronically into three jets, or…
We present results of the updated SuperChic 3 Monte Carlo event generator for central exclusive production. This extends the previous treatment of proton-proton collisions to include heavy ion (pA and AA) beams, for both photon and…
We present the results of recent work on the central exclusive production of meson pairs. We concentrate on the case of flavour-singlet pseudoscalar mesons eta, eta' and show that the central exclusive process, as modelled using a recent…
I briefly review several mechanisms of central exclusive production of mesons at high energies. Some illustrative examples for the BNL RHIC, FNAL Tevatron and CERN LHC as well as for lower energies are discussed. Some differential…
We carry out a global analysis of the experimental data on the $\chi_c$ production cross section and the ratio $\sigma(\chi_{c2})/\sigma(\chi_{c1})$ at the LHC and the Tevatron. The related long-distance matrix elements (LDMEs) at both…
The double-diffractive production of chi_c and chi_b mesons, with a rapidity gap on either side, is studied, using both the Regge formalism and the perturbative QCD approach. Due to the rather low scale, the exclusive double-diffractive…
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are indispensable tools for top quark physics, both at the current Tevatron collider and the upcoming Large Hadron Collider. In this paper we review how the Tevatron experiments CDF and D0 utilize MC simulations…
Central exclusive production (CEP) processes in high-energy hadron collisions offer a very promising framework for studying both novel aspects of QCD and new physics signals. We report on the results of a theoretical study of the CEP of…
Studies on the decay and production of $B_c (B^*_c)$ meson are briefly reviewed. Considering RUN-II of Tevatron and the schedule of LHC, the theoretical studies of $B_c$ meson will jump to a new stage not only for itself but also to…
A four generation supersymmetric model is proposed, in which the Tevatron ``top-quark'' events are reinterpreted as the production of $t^\prime$ which decays dominantly to $bW^+$. In this model, $m_t\simeq m_W$, and $t\rta\widetilde…
Measurements are reported of the central exclusive production of \jpsi and \psitwos mesons in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Backgrounds are significantly reduced compared to previous measurements made at lower…
