Photoproduction of WH signal at electron-proton Colliders
نویسنده
چکیده
We present the photoproduction of an intermediate mass Higgs (IMH) boson associated with a W boson at the future electron-proton colliders using bremsstrahlung photon beam or laser backscattered photon beam. With bremsstrahlung photon beam the search for the IMH boson is unfavorable because of the small signal rate. But with laser photon beam the search is viable due to a much larger rate, and provided that the B-identification is efficient and m(bb̄) measurement has a good resolution. (appear in Phys. Lett. B319, 244)

Heavy quarks are copiously produced in two-photon collisions at ee colliders. The theoretical predictions including QCD radiative corrections are compared to recent experimental data on γγ production of charm quarks at PETRA, PEP, TRISTAN and LEP. Photoproduction of heavy quarks at HERA is an important tool to measure the gluon distribution in the proton. New theoretical results on heavy quark ...

We discuss the photoproduction of Upsilon and J/psi at high energy pp, pp, and heavy ion colliders. We predict large rates in pp interactions at the Fermilab Tevatron and in pp and heavy ion interactions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The J/psi is also produced copiously at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. These reactions can be used to study the gluon distribution in protons and heavy ...
متن کاملHigh Energy Photoproduction
The study of photoproduction reactions has gained a unique opportunity with the HERA data. The high center of mass energy allows to carry out quantitative tests of QCD, to explore the substructure of both the photon and the proton and to shed new light on soft and diffractive processes. In this report we review the HERA results, comparing them with the reach of fixed target photoproduction expe...

Exclusive vector meson photoproduction, pp → ppV and pp → ppV occurs with significant rates at hadron colliders. The reaction can be used to study the gluon distribution of protons. Vector mesons may be produced with either proton as a target; because of interference between the two production channels, the pT spectra of vector mesons produced in pp and pp collisions are quite different. Becaus...
