Transverse-Momentum-Dependent Gluon Distributions and Semi-inclusive Processes at Hadron Colliders

چکیده
Abstract We study transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) gluon distributions and factorization theorems for the gluon-initiated semi-inclusive processes at hadron colliders. Gauge-invariant TMD gluon distributions are defined, and their relations to the integrated (Feynman) parton distributions are explored when the transverse momentum is large. Through explicit calculations, soft-collinear factorization is verified at one-loop order for scalar particle production. Summation over large double logarithms is made through solving the Collins-Soper equation. We reproduce the known result in the limit that the transverse momentum of the scalar is large.

Inclusive Hadronic Distributions inside One Jet at High Energy Colliders at “modified Leading Logarithmic Approximation” of Quantum Chromodynamics
After demonstrating their general expressions valid at all x, double differential 1-particle inclusive distributions inside a quark and a gluon jet produced in a hard process, together with the inclusive k⊥ distributions, are calculated at small x in the Modified Leading Logarithmic Approximation (MLLA), as functions of the transverse momentum k⊥ of the outgoing hadron. Results are compared wit...

Unintegrated partons to describe the P T distributions of electroweak bosons at hadron colliders Abstract We describe the use of unintegrated parton distributions in hadron-hadron collisions, using the (z, k t)-factorisation prescription where the transverse momentum of the incoming parton is generated in the last evolution step. We apply this formalism to calculate the transverse momentum (P T...
متن کاملLarge transverse momentum direct photon production in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders
Direct photon production at large transverse momentum in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders is calculated in the two-gluon exchange model. We find that the amplitude for the production process is related to the differential off-diagonal gluon distribution function in the proton. We estimate the production rate at the Fermilab Tevatron by approximately using the usual gluon d...
متن کاملAn approximation for NLO single Higgs boson inclusive transverse momentum distributions in hadron-hadron collisions
In the framework of the gluon-gluon fusion process for Higgs boson production there are two different prescriptions. They are given by the exact process where the gluons couple via top-quark loops to the Higgs boson and by the approximation where the top-quark mass mt is taken to infinity. In the latter case the coupling of the gluons to the Higgs boson is described by an effective Lagrangian. ...
