Description

An updated measurement of exclusive J/psi and psi(2S) vector meson production is presented. The forward reach of the LHCb detector is sensitive to the gluon PDF down to x=5E-6. The data are compared to predictions at LO and NLO order and to model that include saturation effects, which may become important at such low x-values. Comparisons are also made to photoproduction results from HERA and fixed target experiments. A first result of exclusive di-charm production is also presented.
