The Unintegrated Gluon Density in the Photon and Heavy Quark Production
نویسندگان
چکیده
The production cross section of heavy quarks in real and virtual photon-photon collisions has been studied. The unintegrated gluon density in the photon was obtained using the CCFM evolution equation for the first time. The gluon density was implemented in the Monte Carlo generator CASCADE, and cross sections for heavy quark production in e + e − collisions were calculated and compared to LEP data. Also, predictions for heavy quark cross sections in e + e − and γγ collisions at TESLA energies are given.

Modeling Magnetic Field in Heavy ion Collisions Using Two Different Nuclear Charge Density Distributions
By studying the properties of matter during heavy-ion collisions, a better understanding of the Quark-Gluon plasma is possible. One of the main areas of this study is the calculation of the magnetic field, particularly how the values of conductivity affects this field and how the field strength changes with proper time. In matching the theoretical calculations with results obtained in lab, two diffe...
متن کاملUnintegrated gluon in the photon and heavy quark production
The unintegrated gluon density in the photon is determined, using the Kimber-MartinRyskin prescription . In addition, a model of the unintegrated gluon is proposed, based on the saturation model extended to the large-x region. These gluon densities are applied to obtain cross sections for charm and bottom production in γp and γγ collisions using the kt factorization approach. We investigate bot...
متن کاملHeavy Quark Production at the TEVATRON in the Semihard QCD Approach and the Unintegrated Gluon Distribution
Processes of heavy quark production at TEVATRON energies are considered using the semihard (kT factorization) QCD approach with emphasis of the BFKL dynamics of gluon distributions. We investigate the dependence of the pT distribution of heavy quark production (presented in the form of integrated cross-sections) on different forms of the unintegrated gluon distribution. The theoretical results ...

The application of kt factorization, supplemented with the CCFM small-x evolution equation, to heavy quark production is discussed. Differential cross sections of bb̄ production and also inelastic J/ψ production as measured at HERA are compared to the hadron level CCFM Monte Carlo generator Cascade, using the unintegrated gluon density obtained within the CCFM evolution approach from a fit to HE...

The application of kt-factorization supplemented with the CCFM smallx evolution equation to heavy quark production at the TEVATRON and at HERA is discussed. The bb̄ production cross sections at the TEVATRON can be consistently described using the kt-factorization formalism together with the unintegrated gluon density obtained within the CCFM evolution approach from a fit to HERA F2 data.
