Abstract: (arXiv)
We present a complete evaluation for \jpsi(\psip) prompt production at the Tevatron and LHC at next-to-leading order in nonrelativistic QCD, including color-singlet, color-octet, and higher charmonia feeddown contributions. The short-distance coefficients of \pj at next-to-leading order are found to be larger than leading order by more than an order of magnitude but with a minus sign at high transverse momentum pTp_T. Two new linear combinations of color-octet matrix elements are obtained from the CDF data, and used to predict \jpsi production at the LHC, which agrees with the CMS data. The possibility of \sa dominance and the \jpsi polarization puzzle are also discussed.
