Soft-Gluon Resummation in Heavy Quarkonium Physics

arXiv:hep-ph/9910412 · doi:10.1016/S0550-3213(99)00808-1

Abstract

Soft-gluon resummation within the framework of heavy quarkonium hadroproduction is considered. A few selected cases are studied in detail. A sizeable increase of the cross sections with respect to the next-to-leading order predictions with central factorization/renormalization scale choice can generally be observed. Improvements in the dependence of the cross sections on the two scales, especially when they are kept equal, are also found.
