Prompt Photon plus Charm Production at Next-to-Leading Order in QCD

The two particle inclusive cross section for the reaction $p +\bar{p}\rightarrow γ+ c + X$ is studied in perturbative quantum chromodynamics at order $O(α^2_s)$. Differential distributions are provided for various observables, and a comparison is made with data from the CDF collaboration.

Production of Charm with a Photon at $p\bar{p}$ Colliders

The two particle inclusive cross section for the reaction $p\bar{p}\rightarrow γ+c+X$ is studied in perturbative quantum chromodynamics at order $O(α_s^2)$. Differential distributions are provided for various observables, and a comparison is made with preliminary data from the CDF collaboration.

Associated Production of Charm and a Hard Photon

The two particle inclusive cross section for the reaction $p +\bar{p}\rightarrow γ+ c + X$ is studied in perturbative quantum chromodynamics at order $O(α^2_s)$, for large values of the transverse momentum of the prompt photon and charm quark. Two different techniques are used in performing the phase-space integrals; the first is purely analytical, and the second is a combination of analytic and Monte Carlo integration methods. The second, more versatile technique facilitates imposition of photon isolation restrictions and other selections of relevance in experiments. Differential distributions are provided for various observables, and a comparison is made with preliminary data from the CDF collaboration.

Production of a Prompt Photon in Association with Charm at Next-to-Leading Order in QCD

A second order, $O(α^2_s)$, calculation in perturbative quantum chromodynamics of the two particle inclusive cross section is presented for the reaction $p +\bar{p}\rightarrow γ+ c + X$ for large values of the transverse momentum of the prompt photon and charm quark. The combination of analytic and Monte Carlo integration methods used here to perform phase-space integrations facilitates imposition of photon isolation restrictions and other selections of relevance in experiments. Differential distributions are provided for various observables. Positive correlations in rapidity are predicted.
