Soft Gluon Resummation in Double Heavy Quarkonium Production at LHC

In this paper, the soft gluon resummation effect in double heavy quarkonium production at the LHC is studied. By applying the transverse momentum dependent factorization formalism, the large logarithms introduced by the small total transverse momentum of heavy quarkonium pair final state system, are resummed to all orders in the expansion of the strong interaction coupling at the Next-to-Leading Logarithm accuracy. We also compare our result with the LHC data. We find that the distribution shape predicted by resummation calculation is consistent with experimental data very well. Since this process is mainly initiated by gluon fusion, it supplies us an important channel to study the gluon parton property in hadrons.

Radiative decays of Upsilon(nS) into S-wave and P-wave charmonium

Motivated by very recent measurement of the radiative decays of $Υ(1S)$ to $χ_{c1}$ at Belle, we use the nonrelativistic QCD factorization theory and calculate the branching fractions of the radiative decays of bottomonium into S-wave and P-wave charmonium, i.e. $Υ(nS) \to η_c(nS)+γ$ and $Υ(nS)\to χ_{cJ}+γ$. We systematically studied the branching fractions of the radiative decays of bottomonium into charmonium. Compared to the previous calculation, we obtained the analytical expression for the decay widths and considered the color-octet contributions. For $Υ(nS) \to η_c(nS)+γ$, the relativistic corrections are also obtained. Through the calculation, the theoretical prediction for $Υ(1S)\toχ_{c1}+γ$ is still smaller than the recent Belle measurement. Further theoretical work and experimental analysis are necessary to understand the $χ_{c1}$ production mechanism in upsilon decays.
