Systematic study of Charmonium production in pp collisions at the LHC energies

We have performed a systematic study of $J\mathrm{/}\psi$ and $\psi (2S)$ production in $p-p$ collisions at different LHC energies and at different rapidities using the leading order (LO) non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) model of heavy quarkonium production. We have included the contributions from ${\chi }_{cJ}$ ($J$ = 0, 1, 2) and $\psi (2S)$ decays to $J\mathrm{/}\psi$. The calculated values have been compared with the available data from the four experiments at LHC namely, ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb. In case of ALICE, inclusive $J\mathrm{/}\psi$ and $\psi (2S)$ cross-sections have been calculated by including the feed-down from $B$ meson using Fixed-Order Next-to-Leading Logarithm (FONLL) formalism. It is found that all the experimental cross-sections are well reproduced for $p_T>$ 4 GeV within the theoretical uncertainties arising due to the choice of the factorization scale. We also predict the transverse momentum distributions of $J\mathrm{/}\psi$ and $\psi (2S)$ both for the direct and feed-down processes at the upcoming LHC energies of $\sqrt{s}=$ 5.1 TeV and 13 TeV for the year 2015.
