J/ψpolarization in photo-production up-to the next-to-leading order of QCD

Abstract

We investigate the J/psi polarization in photoproduction at the Hadron Electron Ring Accelerator(HERA) up to the next-to-leading order of QCD. The results show that the transverse momentum p_t and energy fraction z distributions of J/psi production do not agree with the observed ones very well. The theoretical uncertainties for the z distributions of the J/psi polarization parameters with respect to various choices of the renormalization and factorization scales are too large to give an accurate prediction. The uncertainties for the p_t distributions of these parameters are small when p_t>3GeV and the obtained p_t distributions can not describe the experimental data even in this region.
