We evaluate the production cross section for direct J/Psi and Upsilon integrated in P_T for various collision energies in the QCD-based Colour-Singlet Model (CSM). We consider the LO contribution from gluon fusion whose P_T-integrated cross…
Inclusive bottomonium hadroproduction at the Tevatron is firstly examined in a Monte Carlo framework with the colour-octet mechanism implemented in the event generation. We extract some NRQCD colour-octet matrix elements relevant for…
We investigate the pair production of S-wave heavy quarkonium at the LHC in the color-singlet mechanism (CSM) and estimate the contribution from the gluon fragmentation process in the color-octet mechanism (COM) for comparison. With the…
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…
The necessicity of the color-octet mechanism in describing heavy quarkonium production is a longstanding puzzle. Compared to the yields of heavy quarkonium, its polarizations should be a sensitive observable to pin down the color-octet…
In this paper we study the inclusive and diffractive double quarkonium production. Based on the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization formalism for the quarkonium production mechanism we estimate the rapidity and transverse momentum…
We calculate the direct production rate of $J/\psi$ in top quark decays. The color-octet $J/\psi$ production via $t\rightarrow W^+ b J/\psi$ is shown to have a large branching ratio of order $1.5\times 10^{-4}$, which is over an order of…
To test the color-octet model of heavy quarkonium productions, we propose $\psi '$-productions at small-$p_T$ regions in polarized $pp$ collisions for the forthcoming RHIC polarized experiments, whose experimental test at $\sqrt s=50$ GeV…
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…
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…
We report on our recent evaluation of the s-channel cut contribution to J/psi hadroproduction. We show that it is likely significantly larger than the usual cut contribution of the colour-singlet model (CSM), which is known to underestimate…
We review the physics of quarkonium production at high energy colliders, with a specific emphasis on production $via$ fragmentation. We discuss the fragmentation picture for the production of quarkonia at large-$p_T$ at the Tevatron and…
Color-octet contributions to quarkonia production at LEP are studied herein. The short distance formation of heavy quark-antiquark pairs in color-octet configurations via gluon fragmentation processes is significantly enhanced relative to…
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 importance of including colour octet contributions in describing decay and production of quarkonium states is briefly discussed for two cases : the radiative decays of the $\Upsilon$ and the production of $J/\psi$ in the inclusive $B$…
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 analyze charmonium and bottomonium production at fixed target experiments. We find that inclusion of color octet production channels removes large discrepancies between experiment and the predictions of the color singlet model for the…
We formulate the single transverse spin asymmetry in heavy quarkonium production in lepton-nucleon and nucleon-nucleon collisions in the non-relativistic limit. We find that the asymmetry is very sensitive to the production mechanism. The…
Recent data from the Tevatron have revealed that the production rate of prompt charmonium is more than an order of magnitude larger than the best theoretical predictions of a few years ago. This surprising result can be understood by taking…
Different theoretical models which attempt to describe hadronic production of heavy quarkonia are reviewed. Firstly, we consider the Color Singlet Model and point out the large discrepancies between the theoretical predictions and the…
