Description

The necessecity of the color-octet mechanism in describing heavy quarkonium production is a longstanding puzzle. Compared to the yields of heavy quarkonium, its polarizations should be more sensitive to the color-octet contributions. In this talk, I will focus on the chi_c polarization in hadroproduction processes, which may provide a unique test for the color-octet mechanism in nonrelativistic QCD.
