New Heavy Flavor Contributions to the DIS Structure Function
نویسنده
چکیده
We report on recent results obtained for the massive Wilson coefficients which contribute to the structure function F 2 (x, Q 2) at O(α 3 s) in the region Q 2 /m 2 > ∼ 10. In the calculation new species of harmonic sums and harmonic polylogarithms generated by cyclotomic polynomials arise in intermediary results which are briefly discussed.

Author's Personal Copy Dis Heavy-flavor Contributions at Two Loops in a General Mass Scheme
We discuss an NNLO realization of the general mass scheme S-ACOT-χ for treatment of heavy-flavor production in neutral current deep-inelastic scattering. The connection of this scheme to the QCD factorization theorem with massive quarks is elucidated. As a new feature, kinematical constraints on collinear production of heavy quarks that are crucial near the heavy-quark threshold are included in...
متن کاملTwist – 2 Heavy Flavor Contributions to the Structure Function g 2 ( x , Q 2 )
The twist–2 heavy flavor contributions to the polarized structure function g2(x,Q 2) are calculated. We show that this part of g2(x,Q 2) is related to the heavy flavor contribution to g1(x,Q 2) by the Wandzura–Wilczek relation to all orders in the strong coupling constant. Numerical results are presented.

with the parameters x0 and λ determined from the fit to F2. The model was then improved by Bartles, Golec-Biernat and Kowalski (BGK) [3] by including the DGLAP evolution of the gluon density, whose effects are important for the small-r part of the dipole cross section. This allowed to describe the new, more precise, HERA data. However, only the three light quarks contributions to the inclusive ...
متن کاملHeavy Flavor DIS Wilson coefficients in the asymptotic regime
We report on results for the heavy flavor contributions to F2(x,Q ) in the limit Q ≫ m at NNLO. By calculating the massive 3–loop operator matrix elements, we account for all but the power suppressed terms in m/Q. Recently, the calculation of fixed Mellin moments of all 3–loop massive operator matrix elements has been finished. We present new all–N results for the O(nf )–terms, thereby confirmi...
متن کاملStructure Functions in Deep Inelastic Lepton-Nucleon Scattering
This report presents the latest results on structure functions, as available at the Lepton-Photon Symposium 1999. It focuses on three experimental areas: new structure function measurements, in particular from HERA at low x and high Q2; results on light and heavy flavor densities; and determinations of the gluon distribution and of αs . As the talk was delivered at a historic moment and place, ...
