Variable number schemes for heavy quark electroproduction
Heavy quark production has been a major topic of investigation at hadron-hadron, electron-proton and electron-positron colliders. Here a review is given of some topics which are of interest primarily for electronproton colliders. We concentrate on this reaction because a theoretical treatment can be based on the operator product expansion, and also because data are available for deep-inelastic ...
متن کاملVariable flavor number schemes versus fixed order perturbation theory for charm quark electroproduction
Data for D * ± (2010) meson electroproduction in the range 10 < Q 2 < 1350 GeV 2 has recently been presented by the ZEUS collaboration at HERA. We use these results together with their previously published data for 1 < Q 2 < 600 GeV 2 to test whether one can distinguish between different theoretical schemes for charm quark electroproduction. We find that up to the largest Q 2 measured, it is no...
متن کاملHeavy-quark correlations in deep-inelastic electroproduction
We have completed the next-to-leading order perturbative QCD corrections to the virtual-photon exclusive differential cross sections for heavy quark production in deep-inelastic electron-proton scattering, i.e. e + P → Q +Q +X . Using these results, we have computed distributions which are sensitive to correlations among the heavy quark, the heavy antiquark, and the associated jet. Some predict...
متن کاملHeavy-flavor Photo-and Electroproduction at Nlo
We review one-particle inclusive production of heavy-flavored hadrons in a framework which resums the large collinear logarithms through the evolution of the FFs and PDFs and, at the same time, retains the full dependence on the heavy-quark mass without additional theoretical assumptions. The main focus is on the production of D ⋆ mesons in deep inelastic electron–proton scattering at HERA. We ...
متن کاملProgress in bottom - quark fragmentation
I review recent progress on bottom-quark fragmentation in e + e − annihilation, top-quark decay and H → b ¯ b processes. I discuss the implementation of collinear and soft resummation, and the inclusion of non-perturbative information taken from LEP and SLD data. Heavy-quark physics is currently one of the major fields of investigation in experimental and theoretical particle physics. In order ...
