abstract

We use perturbative QCD, beyond the leading $\ln Q^2$ approximation, to show how measurements of diffractive $J/\psi$ production at HERA can provide a sensitive probe of the gluon density of the proton at small values of Bjorken $x$. We estimate both the effect of the relativistic motion of the $c$ and $\overline{c}$ within the $J/\psi$ and of the rescattering of the $c\overline{c}$ quark pair on the proton. We find that the available data for diffractive $J/\psi$ photoproduction can discriminate between the gluon distributions of the most recent sets of partons.

  1. Diffractive Production of Heavy Quarkonia at the Electron Ion Collider

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Keeping the full gluon transverse momentum in diffractive quarkonium production matches HERA psi(2S)/J/psi ratios better than the standard dipole limit and yields new EIC Upsilon-ratio predictions.

  2. How to include exclusive $J/\psi$ production data in global PDF analyses

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Exclusive J/psi photoproduction at HERA is consistent with global PDFs at NLO when the optimal scale and a Q0 subtraction are used, enabling low-x gluon extraction.
