We obtain a generalization of the Low theorem for non-Abelian boson emission in collision of scalar and gauge vector particles and its extension to high energy collisions for small transverse momenta of produced particles. We demonstrate that in the case of particles with spin the direct extension of the Low formula to high energy is in contradiction with the correct amplitude factorization behavior. Consideration of different kinematical regions and use of methods of dual models allow us to separate contributions of intermediate excited states and standard spin corrections in the Low formulae. We show that the amplitude factorization occurs at high energy due to the contribution of the intermediate states which is additional to the gluon production amplitude for the scalar particle collision.

The analyses of large transverse momentum charmonium production at the Tevatron have shown that fragmentation of gluons is an important production mechanism. We study large-pT charmonium production in pp collisions at the LHC, and find that due to the copious gluon production at this energy, the gluon fragmentation contribution completely overwhelms the fusion contribution and the charm quark fragmentation contribution. Our analysis shows that for J/ψ production at the LHC, there is a significant event rate even for pT ~ 100 GeV. The measurement of the cross-section at such large values of pT will provide a very important test of the fragmentation mechanism.
