چکیده
Next-to-leading order correction to the one-particle inclusive cross section in the framework of high energy factorization is calculated. Numerical results for midrapidity region are compared with predictions of conventional calculations based on collinear factorization. e-mail: [email protected]

Inclusive particle production in pp̄ Collisions
We calculate the inclusive production of charged hadrons in pp̄ collisions to next-to-leading order (NLO) in the QCD improved parton model using a new set of NLO fragmentation functions for charged pions and kaons. We predict transverse-momentum distributions and compare them with experimental data from the CERN Spp̄S Collider and the Fermilab Tevatron. DESY 95-020 TUM-T31-84/95
متن کاملUnitary Models of Multi - Particle Amplitudes
A class of models of multi-particle scattering and production amplitudes is constructed for which the S-matrix is exactly unitary at high energies. Two specific models are studied in detail. One leads to a constant total cross-section, the other to a logarithmically increasing one. Particle production in inclusive and exclusive experiments is considered for both models.
متن کاملForward Pion Production in Hadron Collisions at STAR
In contrast to the case for the nucleon, little is known about the distribution of gluons in nuclei, especially in the region of Björkenx < 0.01, where x is the fraction of the nucleon’s momentum carried by the parton. Studies of deuteron(proton)+nucleus collisions at large center of mass energy ( √ sNN=200 GeV) can provide constraints on the gluon density in heavy nuclei. In the perturbative Q...
متن کاملInclusive Prompt Photon Production in Polarized pp Collisions at HERA
We present a NLO study of inclusive polarized prompt photon production in a conceivable fixed target pp mode of HERA with longitudinally polarized protons at √ s = 39 GeV. We analyze the sensitivity of the corresponding double spin asymmetry to the proton’s polarized gluon distribution ∆g and estimate the expected statistical precision in its determination. The main theoretical uncertainties in...
متن کاملStrange Particle Production Mechanisms in Proton-Proton Collisions at RHIC
Abstract. We present data on strange particle production in elementary proton-proton collisions at RHIC energies. Comparison to leading order and next-to-leading order (NLO) calculations shows that the fragmentation process is flavor dependent and that higher order corrections are needed to describe all spectra, in particular at these collision energies, which are modest compared to the Tevatro...
