摘要:

我们介绍了一种混合可变味数计划重口味,表示H-VFNS,它结合了传统的可变味数计划(VFNS)以及固定味数计划(FFNS)的优点。通过包括一个明确的$N_F$依赖的部分子分布函数(PDF)和强耦合常数$α_S$,我们生成共存的集合$N_F=\{3,4,5,6\}$在任何规模$μ$,这是相关的分析$\overline{\text{MS}}$匹配条件。H-VFNS对重夸克贡献进行求和,并为每个特定数据集提供选择最佳$N_F$的自由。因此,我们可以在FFNS框架中拟合选定的HERA数据,同时保留VFNS在高尺度下分析LHC数据的优势。我们说明了如何可以实现这种适合的情况下,HERA和大型强子对撞机的数据。

英文摘要:

We introduce a Hybrid Variable Flavor Number Scheme for heavy flavors, denoted H-VFNS, which incorporates the advantages of both the traditional Variable Flavor Number Scheme (VFNS) as well as the Fixed Flavor Number Scheme (FFNS). By including an explicit $N_F$-dependence in both the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) and the strong coupling constant $α_S$, we generate coexisting sets of PDFs and $α_S$ for $N_F=\{3,4,5,6\}$ at any scale $μ$, that are related analytically by the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ matching conditions. The H-VFNS resums the heavy quark contributions and provides the freedom to choose the optimal $N_F$ for each particular data set. Thus, we can fit selected HERA data in a FFNS framework, while retaining the benefits of the VFNS to analyze LHC data at high scales. We illustrate how such a fit can be implemented for the case of both HERA and LHC data.
