We report on a recent investigation of the single spin asymmetry (SSA) in low virtuality electroproduction of $J/psi$ in color evaporation model. We show that this can be used as a probe for the still unknown gluon Sivers function.
Inclusion of down to zero-momentum gluons and their k_t resummation is shown to quench the too fast rise of the mini jet cross section and thereby obtain realistic total cross-sections.
We present the predictions of a model for proton-proton total cross-section at LHC. It takes into account both hard partonic processes and soft gluon emission effects to describe the proper high energy behavior and to respect the Froissart bound.
