Deep inelastic J/psi production at HERA in the k_T-factorization approach and its consequences for the nonrelativistic QCD

In the framework of the $k_T$-factorization approach, we analyse the inclusive and inelastic production of $J/\psi$ particles in deep inelastic $ep$ scattering. We take into account both colour-singlet and colour-octet production channels. We inspect the sensitivity of theoretical predictions to the choice of model parameters. Our theoretical results agree reasonably well with recent experimental data collected by the collaboration H1 at HERA.
