Study of Inclusive $J/\psi$ Production in Two-Photon Collisions at LEP II with the DELPHI Detector

Inclusive J/psi production in photon-photon collisions has been observed at LEP II beam energies. A clear signal from the reactions gammagamma → J/psi + X is seen. The number of observed N(J/psi → mu^+mu^-) events is 36 +- 7 for an integrated luminosity of 617 pb^-1, yielding a c...

Sumario:Inclusive J/psi production in photon-photon collisions has been observed at LEP II beam energies. A clear signal from the reactions gammagamma → J/psi + X is seen. The number of observed N(J/psi → mu^+mu^-) events is 36 +- 7 for an integrated luminosity of 617 pb^-1, yielding a cross-section of sigma(J/psi + X) = 45 +- 9(stat) +- 17(syst) pb. Based on a study of the event shapes of different types of gammagamma processes in the PYTHIA program, we conclude that (74 +- 22)% of the observed J/psi events are due to "resolved" photons, the dominant contribution of which is most probably due to the gluon content of the photon.
