Detecting hc(1P1) at the LHC
Abstract
In this work, we calculate the hc(1P1) production rate at the LHC to leading order of the strong coupling constant, for both color-singlet and -octet mechanisms. Numerical results show that a considerable number of hc events with moderate transverse momentum pT will be produced in the early run of the LHC, which will supply a good opportunity to further study the nature of this P-wave spin-singlet charmonium state.
