We study the exclusive production of $J^{PC}=0^{++}, 0^{--}$ charmonium states in proton-proton collisions at the LHC energies The $pp to ppeta_c$ reaction is discussed for the first time. We observe a substantial contribution from the nonperturbative domain of gluon virtualities, especially for $eta_c$ production. To model the nonperturbative region better, we utilize models of the unintegrated gluon distribution based on parametrizations of the color dipole cross-section.

We study exclusive production of scalar $chi_{c0}equiv chi_c(0^{++})$ and pseudoscalar $eta_c$ charmonia states in proton-proton collisions at the LHC energies. The amplitudes for $gg to chi_{c0}$ as well as for $gg to eta_c$ mechanisms are derived i n the $k_{T}$-factorization approach. The $p p to p p eta_c$ reaction is discussed for the first time. We have calculated rapidity, transverse momentum distributions as well as such correlation observables as the distribution in relative azimuthal angle and $(t_1,t_2)$ distributions. The latter two observables are very different for $chi_{c0}$ and $eta_c$ cases. In contrast to the inclusive production of these mesons considered very recently in the literature, in the exclusive case the cross section for $eta_c$ is much lower than that for $chi_{c0}$ which is due to a special interplay of the corresponding vertices and off-diagonal UGDFs used to calculate the cross sections. We present the numerical results for the key observables in the framework of potential models for the light-front quarkonia wave functions. We also discuss how different are the absorptive corrections for both considered cases.
Calculations of central exclusive production are affected by very large perturbative and non-perturbative corrections. In this talk, we summarize the results of a study of the uncertainties on these corrections in the case of exclusive dijet production.
We present a new approach for the prompt production of quarkonia which is based on the $k_T$-factorization method. The production of even C-parity quarkonia proceeds via the fusion of two (off-shell) gluons. Especially in the kinematics of the LHCb e xperiment these processes are thus expected to be a sensitive probe of the small-$x$ gluon distribution. We calculate the relevant off-shell matrix elements in terms of the light-front wave functions of the quarkonium states. We present our results for scalar and pseudoscalar charmonia and discuss photon transition form factors as well as cross sections for prompt hadroproduction. We compare our results for the $eta_c$ to recent LHCb data.
Prompt production of charmonium $chi_{c0}$, $chi_{c1}$ and $chi_{c2}$ mesons is studied using proton-proton collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of $sqrt{s}=7$TeV. The $chi_{c}$ mesons are identified through their decay to $J/psigamma$, w ith $J/psitomu^+mu^-$ using photons that converted in the detector. A data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb detector, is used to measure the relative prompt production rate of $chi_{c1}$ and $chi_{c2}$ in the rapidity range $2.0<y<4.5$ as a function of the $J/psi$ transverse momentum from 3 to 20 GeV$/c$. First evidence for $chi_{c0}$ meson production at a high-energy hadron collider is also presented.
We investigate the theoretical description of the central exclusive production process, $h_1 + h_2 to h_1+X+h_2$. Taking Higgs production as an example, we compute the subset of next-to-leading order corrections sensitive to the Sudakov factor appear ing in the process. Our results agree with those originally presented by Khoze, Martin and Ryskin except that the scale appearing in the Sudakov factor, $mu=0.62 sqrt{hat{s}}$, should be replaced with $mu=sqrt{hat{s}}$, where $sqrt{hat{s}}$ is the invariant mass of the centrally produced system. We show that the replacement leads to approximately a factor 2 suppression in the cross-section for central system masses in the range 100--500GeV.
