Description

Quarkonium are considered as an important tool to test our understanding of strong interaction as their production in hadronic collisions involve an interplay of both perturbative and non-perturbative aspects. A complete understanding of the production mechanism of quarkonia in elementary proton-proton collisions remains a challenge. None of the theoretical models of quarkonium production has been able to fully explain simultaneously the measured cross-section and polarization. The polarization is therefore a crucial observable for distinguishing between different production models. In this poster , we will present the the study of inclusive J/$\psi$ polarization produced in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, by the ALICE collaboration at the LHC. The analysis is carried out by reconstructing J/$\psi$ mesons via their dimuon decay channel (J/$\psi$ $\rightarrow$ $\mu^{+}$ $\mu^{-}$), in the forward rapidity region (2.5 $<$ y $<$ 4).
