ABSTRACT
The inclusive production cross sections at forward rapidity of [Formula see text], [Formula see text], [Formula see text](1S) and [Formula see text](2S) are measured in [Formula see text] collisions at [Formula see text] with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.35 pb[Formula see text]. Quarkonia are reconstructed in the dimuon-decay channel and the signal yields are evaluated by fitting the [Formula see text] invariant mass distributions. The differential production cross sections are measured as a function of the transverse momentum [Formula see text] and rapidity [Formula see text], over the ranges [Formula see text] GeV/c for [Formula see text], [Formula see text] GeV/c for all other resonances and for [Formula see text]. The measured cross sections integrated over [Formula see text] and [Formula see text], and assuming unpolarized quarkonia, are [Formula see text] [Formula see text]b, [Formula see text] [Formula see text]b, [Formula see text] nb and [Formula see text] nb, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second one is systematic. The results are compared to measurements performed by other LHC experiments and to theoretical models.
