• CSM is incomplete :

• A color-octet (CO) pair can evolve into a color singlet meson by emitting soft gluons.

• In the effective theory nonrelativistic QCD, CO LDMEs are suppressed by powers of .

• In many cases, color-octet channels are necessary : • For S-wave vector quarkonia ( ),

CSM severely underestimates the cross section.• For production or decay of P-wave quarkonia

( ), CS channel contains IR divergences that can be cancelled only when the CO channels are included.

RESUMMATION OF LEADING LOGARITHMS• The leading logarithms can be resummed to all orders

by solving the LO DGLAP equation

• This equation is diagonalized in Mellin space; the inverse transform can then be carried out numerically

• Because the FFs are singular at the endpoint, the inversion is divergent at ; special attention is needed for contribution at
