Inclusive Heavy-quarkonium Production in Hadronic Collisions∗

We discuss the theory of inclusive production of heavy quarkonium, the comparison between theory and experiment, and the expected nuclear effects in cold nuclear targets. We also present predictions, based on Nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD), for quarkonium production cross sections in the LHC energy range. We find that nuclear effects in the production cross sections are largely independent of the ...

0 Hyperon Polarization in Inclusive Hadronic Production †

A QCD formula for the polarization in the large-pT Λ hyperon production in the unpolarized nucleon-nucleon collision at large xF is derived. We focus on the mechanism in which the chiral-odd spin-independent twist-3 quark distribution EF (x, x) becomes the source of the transversely polarized quarks fragmenting into the polarized Λ. A simple model estimate for that contribution shows the possib...

Lepton fluxes from atmospheric charm revisited

We update predictions for lepton fluxes from the hadroproduction of charm quarks in the scattering of primary cosmic rays with the Earth’s atmosphere. The calculation of charm-pair hadroproduction applies the latest results from perturbative QCD through next-to-next-to-leading order and modern parton distributions, together with estimates on various sources of uncertainties. Our predictions for...
