Abstract

The ALICE Collaboration has studied J/ψ production in pp collisions at √s=7  TeV at the LHC through its muon pair decay. The polar and azimuthal angle distributions of the decay muons were measured, and results on the J/ψ polarization parameters λθ and λϕ were obtained. The study was performed in the kinematic region 2.5
