Inclusive production of the X(3872)

If the X(3872) is a loosely-bound D*0D0/D0D*0 molecule, its inclusive production rate can be described by the NRQCD factorization formalism that applies to inclusive quarkonium production. We argue that if the molecule has quantum numbers JPC=1++, the most important term in the factorization formula should be the color-octet 3S1 term. This is also one of the two most important terms in the factorization formulas for χcJ. Since the color-octet 3S1 term dominates χcJ production for many processes, the ratio of the inclusive direct production rates for X and χcJ should be roughly the same for these processes. The assumption that the ratio of the production rates for X and χcJ is the same for all processes is used to estimate the inclusive production rate of X in B meson decays, Z0 decays, and in pp collisions
