$k_{t}$中双部分子散射中$c \bar c c \bar c$的产生--因子分解方法--介子-介子关联

Production of $c \bar c c \bar c$ in double-parton scattering within $k_{t}$-factorization approach -- meson-meson correlations

Rafal Maciula, Antoni Szczurek

摘要:

我们讨论了在LHC中质子-质子碰撞中两对$c \bar c$的产生。分析中包括了部分子散射(DPS)和部分子散射(SPS)的贡献。DPS的每一步都是在$k_t$ -因子分解方法中计算的,即有效地包括下一个到前导顺序的校正。提出了如何确定DPS贡献的条件。所讨论的机制必然导致介子对的产生:$D_i D_j$(每个都包含$c$夸克)或$\bar D_i \bar D_j$(每个都包含$\bar c$反夸克)。计算了不同粲介子组合的产生率以及$(D^0 D^0$ + $\bar D^0 \bar D^0)$产生的微分分布。在大的理论不确定性的预测DPS横截面是相当相似的横截面测量最近的LHCb合作。最好的描述是用Kimber-Martin-Ryskin(KMR)未积分胶子分布,它很好地模拟了高阶修正。在高能近似下计算的SPS的贡献是相当小的。最后,我们强调DPS机制对ALICE,ATLAS和LHCb最近测量的包含粲介子谱的重要贡献。

英文摘要:

We discuss production of two pairs of $c \bar c$ in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. Both double-parton scattering (DPS) and single-parton scattering (SPS) contributions are included in the analysis. Each step of DPS is calculated within $k_t$-factorization approach, i.e. effectively including next-to-leading order corrections. The conditions how to identify the DPS contribution are presented. The discussed mechanism unavoidably leads to the production of pairs of mesons: $D_i D_j$ (each containing $c$ quarks) or $\bar D_i \bar D_j$ (each containing $\bar c$ antiquarks). We calculate corresponding production rates for different combinations of charmed mesons as well as some differential distribution for $(D^0 D^0$ + $\bar D^0 \bar D^0)$ production. Within large theoretical uncertainties the predicted DPS cross section is fairly similar to the cross section measured recently by the LHCb collaboration. The best description is obtained with the Kimber-Martin-Ryskin (KMR) unintegrated gluon distribution, which very well simulates higher-order corrections. The contribution of SPS, calculated in the high-energy approximation, turned out to be rather small. Finally, we emphasize significant contribution of DPS mechanism to inclusive charmed meson spectra measured recently by ALICE, ATLAS and LHCb.
