Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
Get PDFThe prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

Named for the county of collection. Remarks. The only known host of this beetle is Cycas debaoensis. This cycad occurs in small, relict populations (Tang et al. 2004; Xie et al. 2005) and this beetle species has only been collected from the male cones of this host at two localities. Determination and description of larvae were based on large numbers found associated with adults in C. debaoensis male cones and partial 16 S rRNA gene sequences which were identical to the adults. Field observations of the larvae indicate they feed and develop on the male cones of this species in large numbers, feeding on sporophyll tissue. The adults remain on the male cones by the hundreds and dissection of adults confirm cycad pollen in their guts. They typically account for the highest percentage of adult Cycadophila beetles on male cones sampled in the early stage of cone elongation and pollen shed (range 57.6–89.3 %, mean = 79.8 %, n = 5 cones), but their abundance drops in cones that have nearly completed pollen shedding (range 0–55.6 %, mean = 13.6 %, n = 7 cones). Adults of other species of Cycadophila of the “XB” type (Tang et al. 1999) and identified as C. nigra and C. yunnanensis (see below) occur sympatrically within the same cones of C. debaoensis, these being more abundant on male cones that have nearly completed pollen shedding (range = 41.1–100 %, mean = 80.7 %, n = 7 cones). Larvae of the XB type have not been detected in these cones.Published as part of Xu, Guang, Tang, William, Skelley, Paul, Liu, Nian & Rich, Stephen, 2015, Cycadophila, a new genus (Coleoptera: Erotylidae: Pharaxonothinae) inhabiting Cycas debaoensis (Cycadaceae) in Asia, pp. 251-278 in Zootaxa 3986 (3) on pages 257-262, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3986.3.1, http://zenodo.org/record/24031
