Hadron production experiments

Status and prospects for hadron production experiments

Hadron production measurements for neutrino experiments is a well established field at CERN since the '70s. Precise prediction of atmospheric neutrino fluxes, characterization of accelerator neutrino beams, quantification of pion production and capture for neutrino factory designs, all of these would profit from hadron production measurements. In recent years, interest in such studies was reviv...

Inclusive Lepton-hadron Experiments

Hadron Production in Hadron-Hadron and Lepton-Hadron Collisions

We review a recent global analysis of inclusive single-charged-hadron production in high-energy colliding-beam experiments, which is performed at nextto-leading order (NLO) in the parton model of quantum chromodynamics endowed with nonperturbative fragmentation functions (FFs). Comparisons of pp data from CERN SppS and the Fermilab Tevatron and γp data from DESY HERA with the corresponding NLO ...

Resonant Slepton Production in Hadron–Hadron Collisions

We consider the resonant production of sleptons via 6Rp in hadron–hadron collisions followed by supersymmetric gauge decays of the sleptons. We look at decay modes which lead to the production of a like-sign dilepton pair. The dominant production mechanism giving this signature is the resonant production of a charged slepton followed by a decay to a charged lepton and a neutralino which then de...
