OPEN HEAVY FLAVOR PRODUCTION IN DEEPLY INELASTIC ep SCATTERING AT HERA∗

چکیده

Recent results on inclusive D and D production in deeply inelastic ep scattering at √ s = 301 GeV are summarized. The data have been collected by the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA. The total and the differential cross sections are discussed in the framework of LO and NLO QCD predictions. The data exhibit clear evidence for boson gluon fusion dominating open heavy flavor production in the kinematic range currently explored at HERA. The measurements of F cc 2 (x,Q ) at small Bjorken x are presented. The prospects for future analyses of open charm and beauty production including detector upgrades and anticipated high luminosities are investigated.

Heavy Flavor Production at Hera

Recent results of open charm and beauty production in electron proton scattering at HERA are presented. In photoproduction, the measured cross sections for charm exceed fixed order NLO QCD calculations. Experimental evidence supports the hypothesis that a significant fraction of photoproduction events with charm can be described by resolved photon processes, where the charm quark is a constitue...

Charm quark and D∗± cross sections in deeply inelastic scattering at HERA

A next-to-leading order Monte Carlo program for the calculation of heavy quark cross sections in deeply inelastic scattering is described. Concentrating on charm quark and D(2010) production at HERA, several distributions are presented and their variation with respect to charm quark mass, parton distribution set, and renormalization/factorization scale is studied. PACS number(s): 12.38.Bx,13.60...
