Inclusive production of J/ψ and ψ′ mesons at the LHC

We discuss the prompt production of J/ψ mesons in proton-proton collisions at the LHC within a NRQCD kt-factorization approach using Kimber-Martin-Ryskin (KMR) unintegrated gluon distributions (UGDF). We include both direct color-singlet production (gg → J/ψg) as well as a feed-down from χc → J/ψγ a...
