Event Patterns Extracted from Transverse Momentum and Rapidity Spectra of Bosons and Quarkonium States Produced in pp and Pb-Pb Collisions at LHC

Figure 8

(a) Transverse momentum spectra and (b) backward (forward) region rapidity spectra of bottomonium mesons , , and , as well as whole space rapidity spectra of (c) and (d) mesons produced in pp collisions at  TeV, where and on the vertical axis in (a)-(b) denote the cross section and branching fractions of ( = 1, 2, and 3), respectively. The closed symbols represent the experimental data of the LHCb [35], ALICE [30], and CMS Collaborations [36, 37]. The error bars in (a)-(b) are the total uncertainties which combine the systematic and statistical uncertainties to be equal to their root-sum-square, and the error bars in (c)-(d) are only the systematic uncertainties. The curves are our results calculated by using the hybrid model.
