Qian (PKU)

Quarkonium production has the potential to clarify (non-perturbative) hadron formation and other QCD features However, after decades of theoretical and experimental researches, quarkonium production remains a mystery Best theory candidate is NRQCD: effective field theory, treats quarkonia as non-relativistic systems (heavy quark masses) 4 Introduction (2/2) Production X-sectionPolarization L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

The CMS detector

CMS provides excellent dimuon mass resolution (σ M /M ~0.6%) and large p T reach Use decay channel Υ(nS) →μ + μ -, covering kinematic phase space: 10 < p T < 100 GeV, |y|< 0.6 Acceptance from CMS measured Υ(nS) polarization Muon efficiencies are evaluated from data-driven (Tag-&-Probe) method 6 Υ(nS) differential cross section L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

The Υ(nS) differential cross section time dimuon branching ratio integrated ove |y| < 0.6 in a given p T bin of width △ p T The acceptance is the fraction of Υ decays satisfying all dimuon requirements in which each muon also meets the single-muon kinematic selection 7 Υ(nS) differential cross section L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

8 Υ(nS) differential cross section Cross sections measured up to very large p T (p T >> M) → stringent QCD test There is a transition from nearly exponential cross section decrease with the increasing p T to power-law behavior for all three Υ(nS) states This suggests a change in the nature of the production process L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

9 Comparison to ATLAS and previous CMS measurements Good agreement with ATLAS results and previous CMS results using 2010 data L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

10 Quarkonium polarization: variables and frames λ θ = +1 : “transverse” polarization J z = ± 1 J z = 0 λ θ  = +1 λ φ  = λ θφ = 0 λ θ  = –1 λ φ  = λ θφ = 0 λ θ =  1 : “longitudinal” polarization L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

Helicity axis (HX): direction of quarkonium momentum in Lab frame Collins-Soper axis (CS): direction of relative velocity of colliding particles (p 1 - p 2 ) Perpendicular helicity axis (PX): perpendicular to CS (p 1 + p 2 ) 11 Quarkonium polarization: variables and frames L.

17 Υ(nS) polarization in the HX frame, |y| < 0.6 L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

Color octet matrix elements are fit to CMS hadro-production data only Theoretical calculations account for feed-down contributions to Υ (1S) and Υ (2S) states Calculations for Υ (3S) may change once including feed-down from χ b (3P) 18 Υ(nS): Comparison to NLO NRQCD L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

No signs of strong polarizations The Ψ(2S) is not affected by feed- down from heavier quarkonia → easier comparison to theory Error bars show total uncertainties at 68.3% CL 19 Prompt Ψ(nS) polarization in the HX frame L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

CMS results disagree with existing NLO NRQCD calculations Calculations use a global fit of color octet matrix elements to photo- as well as hadroproduction data Theoretical predictions are for the polarization of the directly produced J/Ψ 's, not accounting for the feed-down from decays of P-wave states 20 Ψ(nS): Comparison to NLO NRQCD L. Zhang and S. Qian (PKU)

Possible solution? The transverse components can be largely canceled between the 3 S 1 [8] and 3 P J [8] channels, leaving the remaining terms to be dominated by the unpolarized J/ψ K.-T. Chao et al, PRL108 (2012)

Υ(1S), Υ(2S) and Υ(3S) differential cross sections for 10 < p T < 100 GeV were measured by CMS using data collected in 2011 A transition from exponential (low p T ) to power-law (high p T ) in the differential cross sections has been observed Three anisotropy parameters and the frame invariant parameter are measured in three polarization frames (HX, CS and PX) for the Υ(1S), Υ(2S), Υ(3S) and prompt J/ Ψ and Ψ(2S) No evidence of strong polarizations, transverse or longitudinal Polarization measurements for most cases disagree with existing theoretical calculations Further experimental and theoretical efforts are necessary to fully understand quarkonium production; the measurement of the polarizations of the P-wave states (χ c and χ b ) is very important 22 Summary L.
