Exploring J/ψ Production Mechanism at the Future Electron-Ion Collider
摘    要:We propose to use transverse momentum p_T distribution of J/ψ production at the future Electron Ion Collider(EIC) to explore the production mechanism of heavy quarkonia in high energy collisions.We apply QCD and QED collinear factorization to the production of a cc pair at high p_T,and non-relativistic QCD factorization to the hadronization of the pair to a J/ψ.We evaluate J/ψ p_T-distribution at both leading and next-to-leading order in strong coupling,and show that production rates for various color-spin channels of a cc pair in electronhadron collisions are very different from that in hadron-hadron collisions,which provides a strong discriminative power to determine various transition rates for the pair to become a J/ψ.We predict that the J/ψ produced in electron-hadron collisions is likely unpolarized,and the production is an ideal probe for gluon distribution of colliding hadron(or nucleus).We find that the J/ψ production is dominated by the color-octet channel,providing an excellent probe to explore the gluon medium in large nuclei at the EIC.
