Quarkonia and heavy flavors at the LHC
Perspectives for measurements of quarkonia and heavy flavors in heavy ion collisions at the LHC are reviewed. 1 Quarkonia and heavy flavors: what is different at the LHC With a nucleus-nucleus center-of-mass energy nearly 30 times larger than the one reached at RHIC, the LHC will open a new era for studying the properties of strongly interacting matter at extreme energy densities [1]. One of th...
متن کاملHeavy flavor contributions to the Drell-Yan cross section.
We investigate the effect of heavy flavor contributions to vector boson (V = γ, Z, W) production which is described by the Drell-Yan mechanism. All reactions with bottom and top quarks (Q i = b, t) in the final state, like q 1 + ¯ q 2 → V + Q 1 + ¯ Q 2 and g + g → V + Q 1 + ¯ Q 2 , are considered. This study also includes the virtual contributions containing heavy flavor loops which were not ta...
متن کاملVector Boson + Heavy Flavor Jets Production at the Tevatron
Events containing vector bosons and heavy-flavor jets constitute valuable data samples for a variety of physics analyses at both CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̄ collider. For example, an event sample containing a W/Z boson and b-jet(s) is a golden sample for the Higgs search at low masses, studies of top quark production and properties, and also searches for the beyond-the-st...
متن کاملInclusive Heavy - Flavor Production from Nuclei
We describe a light-cone wave function formulation for hadroproduction of heavy-flavors at high energies. At moderate values of xF heavy-flavor production can be viewed as a diffractive excitation of heavy quark-antiquark Fock states, present in the interacting gluon from the projectile. The approach developed here is well suited to address coherence effects in heavyquark production from nuclei...
متن کاملGluon Shadowing in Heavy Flavor Production off Nuclei
Gluon shadowing which is the main source of nuclear effects for production of heavy flavored hadrons, remains unknown. We develop a light-cone dipole approach aiming at simplifying the calculations of nuclear shadowing for heavy flavor production, as well as the cross section which does not need next-to-leading and higher order corrections. A substantial process dependence of gluon shadowing is...
