Abstract

Ultra-peripheral Vector Meson Production in CMS

Highlights

  • Within the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework, the hybrid formalism [1] is used to study single inclusive particle production at next-toleading order [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10] and heavy-quark production [11] at forward rapidity

  • The dense target is treated in the CGC, i.e. it is defined as a distribution of strong color fields, which during the scattering transfer transverse momentum to the propagating partonic configuration

  • The usual approach is to calculate the cross section in the CGC, after which one takes the small dipole or correlation limit which corresponds to a leading-power expansion in the ratio p2t /Q2 of the hard scales with Λ2QCD p2t Q2

Summary

Introduction

Within the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework, the hybrid formalism [1] is used to study single inclusive particle production at next-toleading order [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10] and heavy-quark production [11] at forward rapidity. In this set-up, the wave function of the projectile proton is treated in the spirit. Non-perturbative models such as the McLerran–Venugopalan (MV) [23] or Golec-Biernat–Wüsthoff (GBW) model [24] can be used to write down analytical expressions
