abstract
We show that the production of J/psi or Upsilon pairs in unpolarised pp collisions is currently the best process to measure the momentum-distribution of linearly-polarised gluons inside unpolarised protons through the study of azimuthal asymmetries. Not only the short-distance coefficients for such reactions induce the largest possible cos 4 phi modulations, but analysed data are already available. Among the various final states previously studied in unpolarised pp collisions within the TMD factorisation approach, di-J/psi production exhibits by far the largest asymmetries, up to 50% in the region studied by the ATLAS and CMS experiments. In addition, we use the very recent LHCb data at 13 TeV to perform the first fit of the unpolarised transverse-momentum-dependent gluon distribution.

Computes N³LO twist-2 matching for linearly polarized gluon TMDs with NNLL small-x resummation for fragmentation functions.
Tree-level and one-loop collinear matching relations are computed for leading-power gluon TMD PDFs, yielding the first Wandzura-Wilczek approximation for the gluon worm-gear T distribution along with a closed-form mass correction series.
Analytical cross sections and Sivers asymmetry predictions are presented for double quarkonium production via quark-antiquark annihilation at fixed-target experiments, showing a 10-15% asymmetry at COMPASS and small negative asymmetries at LHC fixed-target energies.
Loop-induced CS and selected CO SPS contributions to prompt J/ψ pairs are too small or kinematically limited to account for LHC data or affect DPS control regions.
