QCD resummation effects in forward J/ψ and very backward jet inclusive production at the LHC

´ We propose and study the inclusive production of a forward J/ψ and a very backward jet at the LHC as an observable to reveal high-energy resummation effects à la BFKL. Our different predictions are based on the various existing mechanisms to describe the production of the J/ψ, namely, NRQCD singlet and octet contributions, and the color evaporation model. © 2017 Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0).

Forward $J/\psi$ and very backward jet inclusive production at the LHC

In the spirit of Mueller-Navelet dijet production, we propose and study the inclusive production of a forward $J/\psi$ and a very backward jet at the LHC as an observable to reveal high-energy resummation effects \`a la BFKL. We obtain several predictions, which are based on the various mechanisms discussed in the literature to describe the production of the $J/\psi$, namely, NRQCD singlet and octet contributions, and the color evaporation model.

Production of a forward J/ψ and a backward jet at LHC

We study the production at the LHC of a forward J/ψ meson and a backward jet with a large rapidity separation using the BFKL formalism. We give predictions for both the Non Relativistic QCD (NRQCD) approach to charmonium production and the Color Evaporation Model. In NRQCD, we find that the 3S18 part of the onium wavefunction is completely dominating the process, which makes the presented study a good probe for this color octet contribution. peerReviewed
