通过在LHC上产生极化$J/ψ$对来测试Charmonium产生机制

Testing Charmonium Production Mechanism via Polarized $J/ψ$ Pair Production at the LHC

Cong-Feng Qiao, Li-Ping Sun, Peng Sun

摘要:

目前,色八重态机制仍然是非相对论QCD(NRQCD)中一个重要而有争议的部分。我们发现,在LHC的极化双粲偶素的生产可能会对粲偶素的生产机制提出严格的测试。结果表明,当$p_T$大于7 GeV时,色单重态和八重态产生机制中双$J/ψ$微分截面的横动量标度行为明显偏离.在色八位组机制中,当$p_T\gg 2 m_c$时,一对中的两个$J/ψ$大部分是横向极化的,正如从碎裂极限的观点所预期的那样。在色单重态机制中,大约有一半的粲偶素对至少有一个$J/ψ$在中等横向动量下被纵向极化。极化的$J/ψ$对生产的能量依赖性被发现是弱的,这个过程被发现是实验上可达到的LHC操作的早期阶段。

英文摘要:

At present the color-octet mechanism is still an important and debatable part in the non-relativistic QCD(NRQCD). We find in this work that the polarized double charmonium production at the LHC may pose a stringent test on the charmonium production mechanism. Result shows that the transverse momentum($p_T$) scaling behaviors of double $J/ψ$ differential cross sections in color-singlet and -octet production mechanisms deviate distinctively from each other while $p_T$ is larger than 7 GeV. In color-octet mechanism, the two $J/ψ$s in one pair are mostly transversely polarized when $p_T\gg 2 m_c$, as expected from the fragmentation limit point of view. In color-singlet mechanism, there is about one half of the charmonium pairs with at least one $J/ψ$ being longitudinally polarized at moderate transverse momentum. The energy dependence of the polarized $J/ψ$ pair production is found to be weak, and this process is found to be experimentally attainable in the early phase of the LHC operation.
