The conventional color-singlet model was challenged by the recent data on quarkonium production. Discrepancies in production rates were observed at the Tevatron, at LEP, and in fixed-target experiments. The newly advocated color-octet mechanism provides a plausible solution to the anomalous quarkonium production observed at the Tevatron. The color-octet mechanism should also affect other quarkonium production channels. In this paper we will summarize the studies of quarkonium production in Z0 and ϒ decays.

We discuss the power scaling rules along the lines of a complete heavy quark effective field theory (HQEFT) for the description of heavy quarkonium production through a color-octet mechanism. To this end, we firstly derive a tree-level heavy quark effective Lagrangian keeping both particle–antiparticle mixed sectors allowing for heavy quark–antiquark pair annihilation and creation, but describing only low-energy modes around the heavy quark mass. Then we show the consistency of using HQEFT fields in constructing four-fermion local operators à la NRQCD, to be identified with standard color-octet matrix elements. We analyze some numerical values extracted from charmonia production by different authors and their hierarchy in the light of HQEFT.

Using a sample of > 105 J/ψ → μ+ μ- decays, Fermilab experiment 789 has studied production of J/ψ and ψ′ in 800 GeV proton-nucleon collisions. Differential cross sections and nuclear dependences have been measured for charmonium as well as for charm and beauty production. While charm and beauty production are consistent with perturbative QCD calculations, charmonium cross sections exceed the predictions of the color-singlet model by large factors, suggesting that additional mechanisms (such as color-octet production) may play important roles. Nuclear dependences of production cross sections may offer a new tool for the detailed understanding of charmonium production.
