PolarizedPolarized J/J/ΨΨ PairPair ProductionProduction atat thethe LHCLHC zz ColorColor--singletsinglet modelmodel mademade aa successfulsuccessful descriptiondescription ofof heavyheavy quarkoniumquarkonium productionproduction andand decaysdecays [Wise, 1980; , 1980; Berger & Jones, 1981; …] zz However,However, itsits leadingleading orderorder resultresult isis challengedchallenged byby somesome experimentalexperimental datadata zz InIn phenomenology,phenomenology, nonnon--relativisticrelativistic QCDQCD basedbased ColorColor--octetoctet mechanismmechanism improvesimproves thethe theoreticaltheoretical resultsresults greatlygreatly inin severalseveral casescases

QWG7 Fermilab, 2010 CONG-FENG QIAO 3 z Recently, the NLO QCD calculations in CSM significantly enhance the color-singlet yield in lots of charmonium production processes, and hence diminish the estimated color-octet contributions [Chao et aal.,l., 2006, 2007, 2010; et al., 2007 2008, 2010; Artoisenet, et al., 2007; …] z In some cases, the higher order calculations in CSM can even explain the data

z The application of COM to charmonium physics keeps on being a debatable issue
