Parton Distributions and QCD at LHCb
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the impact that can be made on our understanding of parton distributions (PDFs) and QCD from early measurements at the LHCb experiment. The high rapidity values make the experiment uniquely suited to a detailed study of small-x parton distributions and hence will make a significant contribution towards the clarification of both experimental and theoretical uncertainties on PDFs and their applications.

LHCb Results on Multi-parton Interactions, Soft QCD and Diffraction
Due to its unique pseudorapidity coverage (2 < η < 5) and excellent performance, the LHCb detector allows for studying soft QCD processes at large rapidities and low transverse momenta. Selected results, such as charged particle multiplicities and densities, forward energy flow and prompt charm production are briefly summarized in these proceedings. The measurements are performed using large sa...
متن کاملبررسی مدلهای گوناگون QCD و مقایسه آنها با نتایج حاصل از نابودی e+e- در انرژی مرکز جرم60GeV
We present the QCD models based on the hadronization of final states of e+e- annihilations, in 60 GeV centre of mass energy in the AMY detector at the KEK collider TRISTAN. To achieve this, we first find the jet axis by using the momentum tensor and diagonilizing it for each event. The models under consideration are the Webber, the Matrix Elements and the Parton Shower. In most cases our resu...
متن کاملDouble parton distributions in the leading logarithm approximation of perturbative QCD
Recent CDF measurements of the inclusive cross section for a double parton scattering attach a great importance to any theoretical calculations of two-particle distribution functions. Using a parton interpretation of the leading logarithm diagrams of perturbative QCD theory, generalized Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi-Dokshitzer equations for the two-parton distributions are re-obtained. The solutions...
متن کاملPolarized Parton Distributions in the Photon and Factorization Scheme Dependence
Spin-dependent parton distributions in the polarized virtual photon are investigated in QCD up to the next-to-leading order (NLO). In the case Λ ≪ P 2 ≪ Q, where −Q (−P ) is the mass squared of the probe (target) photon, parton distributions can be predicted completely up to the NLO, but they are factorization-scheme-dependent. Parton distributions are analyzed in four different factorization s...
متن کاملQCD Sum Rules and Models for Generalized Parton Distributions
I use QCD sum rule ideas to construct models for generalized parton distributions. To this end, the perturbative parts of QCD sum rules for the pion and nucleon electromagnetic form factors are interpreted in terms of GPDs and two models are discussed. One of them takes the double Borel transform at adjusted value of the Borel parameter as a model for nonforward parton densities, and another is...
