Double prompt J/ψ production at hadron colliders

Abstract

In this paper, we give a brief review of recent theoretical studies of double prompt [Formula: see text] production at the FNAL Tevatron and the CERN LHC, to which both single- and double-parton-scattering processes contribute. In single parton scattering, we mainly present the results computed within the framework of non-relativistic quantum chromodynamics factorization combined with one of the two approaches to describe the parton inside the (anti)proton, the collinear parton model and the parton Reggeization approach. The contributions from double parton scattering calculated with different values of [Formula: see text] are also discussed. We conclude that, in double prompt [Formula: see text] hadroproduction, there remain some differences between theoretical predictions and experimental measurements.
