Abstract We consider the transverse momentum spectrum and the cos 2ϕ azimuthal distribution of J/ψ mesons produced in semi-inclusive, deep-inelastic electron-proton scattering, where the electron and the proton are unpolarized. At low transverse momentum, we propose factorized expressions in terms of transverse momentum dependent gluon distributions and shape functions. We show that our formulae, at the order αs, correctly match with the collinear factorization results at high transverse momentum. The latter are computed at the order $$ {\alpha}_s^2 $$ α s 2 in the framework of nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD), with the inclusion of the intermediate $$ {}^3{S}_1^{\left[1\right]} $$ 3 S 1 1 color-singlet Fock state, as well as the subleading color-octet ones that are relatively suppressed by a factor v4 in the NRQCD velocity parameter v. We show that the $$ {}^1{S}_0^{\left[8\right]} $$ 1 S 0 8 and $$ {}^3{P}_J^{\left[8\right]} $$ 3 P J 8 (J = 0, 1, 2) contributions diverge in the small transverse momentum region and allow us to determine the perturbative tails of the shape functions, which carry the same quantum numbers. These turn out to be identical, except for the overall magnitude given by the appropriate NRQCD long distance matrix element.

Transverse momentum spectra of mesons produced in p+p collisions are studied in the framework of a thermalized cylinder model. In the region of high transverse momentum, the considered distributions have a tail part at the maximum energy of RHIC. A two-component distribution based upon the improved cylinder model is used to fit the experimental data of the PHENIX Collaboration. It is found that the improved approach can describe the meson production in the wider range of transverse momenta.
