A Variable Flavour Number Scheme for Charged Current Heavy Flavour Structure Functions
The Thorne-Roberts variable flavour number scheme (VFNS) for heavy quarks is presented in detail for the specific case of charged current DIS. As in neutral current DIS this provides a smooth extrapolation from the fixed flavour number scheme (FFNS) appropriate at low Q2 to the zero-mass variable flavour number scheme (ZM-VFNS) appropriate as Q2 → ∞, and differs from alternative versions of a V...

متن کاملA Variable - Flavour Number Scheme for NNLO
At NNLO it is particularly important to have a Variable-Flavour Number Scheme (VFNS) to deal with heavy quarks because there are major problems with both the zero mass variable-flavour number scheme and the fixed-flavour number scheme. I illustrate these problems and present a general formulation of a Variable-Flavour Number Scheme (VFNS) for heavy quarks that is explicitly implemented up to NN...
متن کاملA Variable Flavour Number Scheme for Heavy Quark Production at Small x
We define a new variable flavour number scheme for use in deep inelastic scattering, motivated by the need to consistently implement high energy resummations alongside a fixed order QCD expansion. We define the DIS(χ) scheme at fixed order, and show how to obtain the small x coefficient functions and heavy flavour matrix elements to leading order in the high energy resummation. We then implemen...
متن کاملA Practical Procedure for Evolving Heavy Flavour Structure Functions
The transition from the low Q2 region in deep inelastic scattering where charm production is described by photon-gluon fusion to a region where the charm structure function F c 2 is largely generated by a charm quark density should be a smooth passage. The all orders prescription for matching between the two schemes does not uniquely determine all the relevant coefficient functions (CF’s) or gu...
