J/psi Spin Asymmetries in the Colour-Octet Model

arXiv:hep-ph/9609504 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.55.7144

Abstract

We investigate the pattern of asymmetries in the colour-octet model for inclusive production of charmonium with polarised initial state hadrons and photons. We find that singly polarised asymmetries vanish. The double polarised asymmetry for J/psi involves a new combination of long-distance matrix element. We also investigate the asymmetries for eta_c, chi_c and Upsilon production. The asymmetries distinguish well between different models of charmonium production.
