The PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has measured the differential cross section, mean transverse momentum, mean transverse momentum squared of inclusive $J/psi$ and cross-section ratio of $psi(2S)$ to $J/psi$ at forward rapidity in pp collisions at sqrts = 510 GeV via the dimuon decay channel. Comparison is made to inclusive $J/psi$ cross sections measured at sqrts = 200 GeV and 2.76--13 TeV. The result is also compared to leading-order nonrelativistic QCD calculations coupled to a color-glass-condensate description of the low-$x$ gluons in the proton at low transverse momentum ($p_T$) and to next-to-leading order nonrelativistic QCD calculations for the rest of the $p_T$ range. These calculations overestimate the data at low $p_T$. While consistent with the data within uncertainties above $approx3$ GeV/$c$, the calculations are systematically below the data. The total cross section times the branching ratio is BR $dsigma^{J/psi}_{pp}/dy (1.2<|y|<2.2, 0<p_T<10~mbox{GeV/$c$}) =$ 54.3 $pm$ 0.5 (stat) $pm$ 5.5 (syst) nb.

We report the first measurement of the fraction of $J/psi$ mesons coming from $B$-meson decay ($F_{B{rightarrow}J/psi}$) in $p$+$p$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=$ 510 GeV. The measurement is performed using the forward silicon vertex detector and central v ertex detector at PHENIX, which provide precise tracking and distance-of-closest-approach determinations, enabling the statistical separation of $J/psi$ due to $B$-meson decays from prompt $J/psi$. The measured value of $F_{B{rightarrow}J/psi}$ is 8.1%$pm$2.3% (stat)$pm$1.9% (syst) for $J/psi$ with transverse momenta $0<p_T<5$ GeV/$c$ and rapidity $1.2<|y|<2.2$. The measured fraction $F_{B{rightarrow}J/psi}$ at PHENIX is compared to values measured by other experiments at higher center of mass energies and to fixed-order-next-to-leading-logarithm and color-evaporation-model predictions. The $bbar{b}$ cross section per unit rapidity ($dsigma/dy(pp{rightarrow}bbar{b})$) extracted from the obtained $F_{B{rightarrow}J/psi}$ and the PHENIX inclusive $J/psi$ cross section measured at 200 GeV scaled with color-evaporation-model calculations, at the mean $B$ hadron rapidity $y={pm}1.7$ in 510 GeV $p$$+$$p$ collisions, is $3.63^{+1.92}_{-1.70}mu$b, and it is consistent with the fixed-order-next-to-leading-logarithm calculations.
We report the first measurement of the full angular distribution for inclusive $J/psirightarrowmu^{+}mu^{-}$ decays in $p$$+$$p$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=510$ GeV. The measurements are made for $J/psi$ transverse momentum $2<p_{T}<10$ GeV/$c$ and rapid ity $1.2<y<2.2$ in the Helicity, Collins-Soper, and Gottfried-Jackson reference frames. In all frames the polar coefficient $lambda_{theta}$ is strongly negative at low $p_{T}$ and becomes close to zero at high $p_{T}$, while the azimuthal coefficient $lambda_{phi}$ is close to zero at low $p_{T}$, and becomes slightly negative at higher $p_{T}$. The frame-independent coefficient $tilde{lambda}$ is strongly negative at all $p_{T}$ in all frames. The data are compared to the theoretical predictions provided by nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics models.

The cross section of bottom quark-antiquark ($bbar{b}$) production in $p$+$p$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=510$ GeV is measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The results are based on the yield of high mass, like-sign muon pairs measured within the PHENIX muon arm acceptance ($1.2<|y|<2.2$). The $bbar{b}$ signal is extracted from like-sign dimuons by utilizing the unique properties of neutral $B$ meson oscillation. We report a differential cross section of $dsigma_{bbar{b}rightarrow mu^pmmu^pm}/dy = 0.16 pm 0.01~(mbox{stat}) pm 0.02~(mbox{syst}) pm 0.02~(mbox{global})$ nb for like-sign muons in the rapidity and $p_T$ ranges $1.2<|y|<2.2$ and $p_T>1$ GeV/$c$, and dimuon mass of 5--10 GeV/$c^2$. The extrapolated total cross section at this energy for $bbar{b}$ production is $13.1 pm 0.6~(mbox{stat}) pm 1.5~(mbox{syst}) pm 2.7~(mbox{global})~mu$b. The total cross section is compared to a perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculation and is consistent within uncertainties. The azimuthal opening angle between muon pairs from $bbar{b}$ decays and their $p_T$ distributions are compared to distributions generated using {sc ps pythia 6}, which includes next-to-leading order processes. The azimuthal correlations and pair $p_T$ distribution are not very well described by {sc pythia} calculations, but are still consistent within uncertainties. Flavor creation and flavor excitation subprocesses are favored over gluon splitting.
In this paper, results on the J/psi cross section and polarization measured via the dielectron decay channel at mid-rapidity in p+p collisions at 200 and 500 GeV in the STAR experiment are discussed. Also, first measurements of the J/psi production a s a function of the charged-particle multiplicity density and of psi(2S) to J/psi ratio at 500 GeV are reported.
We report the double helicity asymmetry, $A_{LL}^{J/psi}$, in inclusive $J/psi$ production at forward rapidity as a function of transverse momentum $p_T$ and rapidity $|y|$. The data analyzed were taken during $sqrt{s}=510$ GeV longitudinally polariz ed $p$$+$$p$ collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) in the 2013 run using the PHENIX detector. At this collision energy, $J/psi$ particles are predominantly produced through gluon-gluon scatterings, thus $A_{LL}^{J/psi}$ is sensitive to the gluon polarization inside the proton. We measured $A_{LL}^{J/psi}$ by detecting the decay daughter muon pairs $mu^+ mu^-$ within the PHENIX muon spectrometers in the rapidity range $1.2<|y|<2.2$. In this kinematic range, we measured the $A_{LL}^{J/psi}$ to be $0.012 pm 0.010$~(stat)~$pm$~$0.003$(syst). The $A_{LL}^{J/psi}$ can be expressed to be proportional to the product of the gluon polarization distributions at two distinct ranges of Bjorken $x$: one at moderate range $x approx 0.05$ where recent RHIC data of jet and $pi^0$ double helicity spin asymmetries have shown evidence for significant gluon polarization, and the other one covering the poorly known small-$x$ region $x approx 2times 10^{-3}$. Thus our new results could be used to further constrain the gluon polarization for $x< 0.05$.
