Colour-octet Contributions to $x_F$ Distributions in $J/\psi$   Hadro-production at Fixed Target Energies
  We study J/\psi production at fixed-target energies, including the colour-octet production mechanisms predicted by NRQCD. In an earlier paper, we found that the octet components were crucial in understanding p_T-integrated forward (x_F > 0) cross-sections. Here we make a detailed comparison of the theoretical predictions with measured x_F distributions from fixed-target experiments. We find that the model predictions agree well with data. Taking into account higher orders in NRQCD, we argue that sigma(chi_1)/sigma(chi_2)=0.6, in excellent agreement with data. Similiar arguments also predict that sigma(chi)/sigma(J/psi) is roughly equal in photo- and hadro-production.
