Heavy Quark Production at HERAHeavy Quark Production at HERA• At HERA heavy quarks mainly produced via
photon-gluon fusion: γg→bb, cc
in photoproduction c & b are produced rarely w.r.t. u, d, s ; also c ≈ 200 * b. Cross sections directly sensitive to gluon density in
the proton Contributions from hadronic component of the
photon expected: which and how much?

Theoretical DescriptionTheoretical DescriptionNLO calculations in massive schemes:FMNR photoproduction (hadronic resolved component small) (Frixione, Mangano, Nason, Ridolfi) HVQDIS DIS (no resolved component) (Harris, Smith)
LO-ME+PS models used:PYTHIA photoproduction (DGLAP) (excitation+hadronic resolved) (Bengtsson, Sjostrand)
CASCADE photoproduction (CCFM) (no resolved component)
RAPGAP electroproduction (no resolved component) (H.Jung)

D*μ correlations
D* yield measured from the ΔM technique : ΔM = mKππs – MKπ
Extract N(D*μ) from fit to Gaussian peak + background : N(D*μ) = 151 ± 22
‘2D fit’ – simultaneous likelihood fit to ΔM in 4 correlation regions to extract c and b contributions
D* peak and background shape from 1D fit
6 free parameters: Nc, Nb and four background regions (χ2 = 145.5 / 154 d.o.f)

V. good agreement between 2D fit and individual 1D fits
Nc = 53 ± 12Nb = 66 ± 17
Use these to calculate visible cross sections for : σc
vis(ep → e D* μ X)=250±57±40 pb (NLO: 286+159-59)σb
vis(ep → e D* μ X)=206±53±35 pb (NLO: 52+14-9)
Fit Result
Charm: good agreementBeauty: data too high
Visible kinematic region : pT (D*) > 1.5 GeV; |η(D*)| < 1.5; p(μ) > 2 GeV; |η(μ)| < 1.735; 0.05 < y < 0.75; Q2 < GeV2.

D*D*μμ – (N)LO FMNR comparisons – (N)LO FMNR comparisons
• Expected deviations from LO due to higher order effects – flatter pT distribution and broader ΔΦ peak.• Good agreement with NLO calculation
Normalized Cross Sections!

D*D*μμ – PYTHIA & CASCADE MC – PYTHIA & CASCADE MC comparisonscomparisons
• Both MCs give a good description of the data• NB: Although different approaches to parton evolution are taken, the differences are smaller than the experimental errors

SummarySummary
Beauty results HERA I with jets and muon final
B Cross sections tend to be above NLO pQCD calculations
Shapes of differential distributions deviate from QCD only in few places
(e.g. forward, low pTµ)
Double Tag Analyses started: D*µ, µµ - stat. limited
reach to low pT(b)– total cross section possible
Measured cross sections higher than NLO QCD
Shape of Differential Distributions described: NLO effects visible
