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.

A combined analysis of both [Formula: see text] (LEP, SLD) and [Formula: see text] (RHIC-PHENIX and LHC-ALICE) hadroproduction processes are done for the first time for the vector meson nonet at the next-to-leading order (NLO) using a model with broken SU(3) symmetry. The transverse momentum ([Formula: see text]) and rapidity ([Formula: see text]) dependence of the differential cross-section for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] mesons of the [Formula: see text] data are also discussed. The input universal quark (valence and singlet) fragmentation functions at a starting scale of [Formula: see text], after evolution, have values that are consistent with the earlier analysis for [Formula: see text] at NLO. However, the universal gluon fragmentation function is now well determined from this study with significantly smaller error bars, as the [Formula: see text] hadroproduction cross-section is particularly sensitive to the gluon fragmentation since it occurs at the same order as the quark fragmentation, in contrast to the [Formula: see text] hadroproduction process. Additional parameters involved in describing the strangeness and sea suppression and octet–singlet mixing are found to be close to the earlier analysis; in addition, a new relation between the gluon and sea suppression in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] hadroproduction has been observed.

We present a short review of exotic charmonium production in heavy ion collisions. We discuss predictions for the production cross section of several of these states in ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. The experimental study of these processes is feasible and can be used to yield valuable information about the structure of multiquark states. We also address X(3872) production in central Pb-Pb collisions. In particular, we discuss the suppression of X(3872) during the hadron gas phase. Finally, we comment on the very recent CMS data on the X(3872) yield in Pb-Pb collisions. the very recent CMS data on the X(3872) yield in Pb-Pb collisions.

Extending a previous analysis1 the double charmonium production [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] has been investigated with a data set of 155 fb-1 with the Belle detector. Theoretical predictions for the cross section are one order of magnitude lower than the measured value and this discrepancy is still not understood. In a very recent update with a dataset of 285 fb-1 strong evidence for a new charmonium state at a mass of 3.940 GeV was found.

We calculate the contribution of the higher-twist Feynman diagrams to the large-[Formula: see text] inclusive gluon production cross-section in [Formula: see text] collisions in case of the running coupling and frozen coupling approaches within perturbative and holographic QCD. The structure of infrared renormalon singularities of the higher-twist subprocess cross-section is obtained and the resummed higher-twist cross-sections (Borel sum) with the ones obtained in the framework of the frozen coupling approach and leading-twist cross-section are compared and analyzed.
