Charmonium Polarization in High Energy Collisions

Abstract

We consider charmonium polarization at high-energy hadron collider Tevatron in the framework of the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) and the k_T-factorization approach. The polarization effects are studied for the direct and the prompt production channels. The obtained predictions can be used to test the Regge limit of QCD and the NRQCD formalism.
