## Abstract

We review the physics of quarkonium production at high energy colliders, with a specific emphasis on production $via$ fragmentation. We discuss the fragmentation picture for the production of quarkonia at large-$p\_T$ at the Tevatron and emphasise the importance of the colour-octet components of the quarkonium wave function which are included in the fragmentation functions. Applications of these theoretical ideas to other processes, both at the Tevatron and at other experiments like LEP, HERA and the LHC are important as they will provide stringent tests of these ideas.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
