J/psi Spin Asymmetries in the Colour-Octet Model
Abstract
We investigate the pattern of asymmetries in the colour-octet model for inclusive production of charmonium with polarised initial state hadrons and photons. We find that singly polarised asymmetries vanish. The double polarised asymmetry for J/psi involves a new combination of long-distance matrix element. We also investigate the asymmetries for etac, chic and Upsilon production. The asymmetries distinguish well between different models of charmonium production.
