Photoproduction of J/ in the forward region
Abstract
We study the phenomenology of fixed-target elastic J/ photoproduction in the NRQCD factorization formalism. Our the goal is to test an essential feature of this formalism --- the color-octet mechanism. We obtain an order-of-magnitude estimate for a certain linear combination of NRQCD color-octet matrix elements. Our estimate is consistent with other empirical determinations and with the v-scaling rules of NRQCD.
