تولید مزونهای سنگین (S1)Bc در LHC و Tevatron Run II با در نظر گرفتن اسپین کوارک
In this research, we have investigated the effect of spin orientation of quarks on the production of the Bc(1S) heavy mesons. We have calculated the fragmentation functions at initial scale µ° .Then we have modified to µ these fragmentation functions by using Altrali-Parisi equation. Also, we have calculated the transverse momentum distributions of the differential cross sections . Our results...
متن کاملTevatron - for - LHC Report of the QCD Working Group
The experiments at Run 2 of the Tevatron have each accumulated over 1 fb−1 of high-transverse momentum data. Such a dataset allows for the first precision (i.e. comparisons between theory and experiment at the few percent level) tests of QCD at a hadron collider. While the Large Hadron Collider has been designed as a discovery machine, basic QCD analyses will still need to be performed to under...
متن کاملWZ production at hadron colliders: Effects of nonstandard WWZ couplings and QCD corrections.
The process p p (−) → W±Z + X → `1 ν1`2 `2 + X is calculated to O(αs) for general C and P conserving WWZ couplings. At the Tevatron center of mass energy, the QCD corrections to WZ production are modest. At Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies, the inclusive QCD corrections are large, but can be reduced significantly if a jet veto is imposed. Sensitivity limits for the anomalous WWZ couplings a...
متن کاملDirect photon production at HERA, the Tevatron and the LHC
We review several most recent prompt-photon measurements at HERA and the Tevatron and discuss their implication for future measurements at the LHC. A comparison to Monte Carlo models, as well as to NLO QCD predictions based on the standard DGLAP and the kT -factorization approaches is discussed. Effects from renormalization and factorization scale uncertainties, as well as uncertainties on the ...
متن کاملQcd and Hard Diffraction at the Lhc
As an introduction to QCD at the LHC I give an overview of QCD at the Tevatron, emphasizing the high Q 2 frontier which will be taken over by the LHC. After describing briefly the LHC detectors I discuss high mass diffraction, in particular central exclusive production of Higgs and vector boson pairs. I introduce the FP420 project to measure the scattered protons 420m downstream of ATLAS and CM...
متن کاملPrecision tests of QCD with jets and vector bosons at HERA and TevaTron
Recent results from HERA and TevaTron on precision tests of QCD with jets, W and Z bosons and photons associated with jets and heavy flavours are presented. The measurements were used to probe QCD at the highest energies, to provide experimental constraints on SM processes that constitute background to new physics, to extract values of the coupling of the strong interaction and to constrain the...
