Heavy Quark Photoproduction in Proton-proton Collisions
We calculate the photoproduction of heavy quarks in proton-proton collisions at RHIC, Tevatron and LHC energies. The integrated cross section and the rapidity distributions for open charm and bottom production are computed employing sound high energy QCD formalisms. For the linear pQCD approaches we consider both the usual collinear factorization and the k⊥factorization formalisms, whereas for ...
متن کاملAspects of heavy quark production in polarized proton-proton collisions
We examine the spin-dependence of b-quark production at large transverse momentum in polarized proton-proton collisions. The leading-order (LO) 2 → 2 subprocesses, g+g → Q+Q and q+q → Q+Q have a large ‘analyzing power’, as measured by the average spin-spin asymmetry <âLL>, at large pT , approaching −100%. The contributions from next-to-leading order (NLO) 2 → 3 processes are also discussed and ...
متن کاملPhotoproduction of quarkonium in proton-proton and nucleus-nucleus collisions.
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 کاملHeavy quark energy loss in high multiplicity proton-proton collisions at the LHC.
One of the most promising probes to study deconfined matter created in high energy nuclear collisions is the energy loss of (heavy) quarks. It has been shown in experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider that even charm and bottom quarks, despite their high mass, experience a remarkable medium suppression in the quark gluon plasma. In this exploratory investigation we study the energy l...
متن کاملHeavy Quark Photoproduction in Ultra-peripheral Heavy Ion Collisions
Heavy quarks are copiously produced in ultra-peripheral heavy ion collisions. In the strong electromagnetic fields, cc and bb are produced by photonuclear and two-photon interactions; hadroproduction can occur in grazing interactions. We present the total cross sections, quark transverse momentum and rapidity distributions, as well as the QQ invariant mass spectra from the three production chan...
