Abstract
A search has been made for direct production of heavy quarkonium state s in more than 3 million hadronic Z(0) decays in the 1991-1994 DELPHI data, Prompt J/psi, psi(2S) and Upsilon candidates have been searched for through their leptonic decay modes using criteria based on the kin ematics and decay vertex positions. New upper limits are set at the 90 % confidence level for Br(Z(0) --> (Q (Q) over bar) X)/Br(Z(0) --> had rons) for various strong production mechanisms of J/psi and Upsilon; t hese range down to 0.9 x 10(-4). The limits are set in the presence of a small excess (similar to 1% statistical probability of a background fluctuation) in the sum of candidates from prompt J/psi, psi(2S), Ups ilon(1S), Upsilon(2S) and Upsilon(3S) relative to the estimated backgr ound.
