Abstract

We study azimuthal asymmetries in heavy quark pair production in unpolarized electron-proton and proton-proton collisions, where the asymmetries originate from the linear polarization of gluons inside unpolarized hadrons. We provide cross section expressions and study the maximal asymmetries allowed by positivity, for both charm and bottom quark pair production. The upper bounds on the asymmetries are shown to be very large depending on the transverse momentum of the heavy quarks, which is promising especially for their measurements at a possible future Electron-Ion Collider or a Large Hadron electron Collider. We also study the analogous processes and asymmetries in muon pair production as a means to probe linearly polarized photons inside unpolarized protons. For increasing invariant mass of the muon pair the asymmetries become very similar to the heavy quark pair ones. Finally, we discuss the process dependence of the results that arises due to differences in color flow and address the problem with factorization in case of proton-proton collisions., Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures

Abstract

Exclusive ρ+ρ−ρ+ρ− production in two-photon collisions between a quasi-real photon, γ , and a mid-virtuality photon, γ∗γ∗, is studied with data collected at LEP at centre-of-mass energies View the MathML source183 GeV⩽s⩽209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 684.8 pb−1684.8 pb−1. The cross section of the γγ∗→ρ+ρ−γγ∗→ρ+ρ− process is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q2Q2, and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, WγγWγγ, in the kinematic region: 0.2 GeV2⩽Q2⩽0.85 GeV20.2 GeV2⩽Q2⩽0.85 GeV2 and 1.1 GeV⩽Wγγ⩽3 GeV1.1 GeV⩽Wγγ⩽3 GeV. These results, together with previous L3 measurements of ρ0ρ0ρ0ρ0 and ρ+ρ−ρ+ρ− production, allow a study of the γγ∗→ρργγ∗→ρρ process over the Q2Q2-region 0.2 GeV2⩽Q2⩽30 GeV20.2 GeV2⩽Q2⩽30 GeV2.

Abstract

Exclusive rho^+ rho^- production in two-photon collisions involving a single highly-virtual photon is studied with data collected at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 89 GeV < \sqrt{s} < 209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 854.7 pb^-1. The cross section of the process gamma gamma^* -> rho^+ rho^- is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q^2, and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, W_gg, in the kinematic region: 1.2 GeV^2 < Q^2 < 30 GeV^2 and 1.1 GeV < W_gg < 3 GeV. The \rho^+\rho^- production cross section is found to be of the same magnitude as the cross section of the process gamma gamma^* -> rho^0 rho^0, measured in the same kinematic region by L3, and to have similar W_gg and Q^2 dependences. Exclusive ρ+ρ− production in two-photon collisions involving a single highly-virtual photon is studied for the first time with data collected by the L3 experiment at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 89 rho^+ rho^- is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q^2, and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, W_gg, in the kinematic region: 1.2 GeV^2 < Q^2 < 30 GeV^2 and 1.1 GeV < W_gg < 3 GeV. The \rho^+\rho^- production cross section is found to be of the same magnitude as the cross section of the process gamma gamma^* -> rho^0 rho^0, measured in the same kinematic region by L3, and to have similar W_gg and Q^2 dependences.

Abstract

Exclusive rho(0)rho(0) production in two-photon collisions between a quasi-real and a mid-virtuality photon is studied with data collected at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 183 < roots < 209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 684.8 pb(-1). The cross section of the process gammagamma* --> rho(0)rho(0) is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q(2), and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, W-gammagamma. in the kinematic region: 0.2 < Q(2) < 0.85 GeV2 and 1.1 < W-gammagamma < 3 GeV.

Abstract

Exclusive ρ0ρ0 production in two-photon collisions involving a single highly virtual photon is studied with data collected at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 89 GeV < √s < 209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 854.7 pb−1. The cross section of the process γ γ ∗ → ρ0ρ0 is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q2, and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, Wγ γ , in the kinematic region: 1.2 GeV2 < Q2 < 30 GeV2 and 1.1 GeV < Wγ γ < 3 GeV., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas

Abstract

Muon pair production in the process e(+)e(-) --> e(+)e(-)mu (+)mu (-) is studied using the data taken at LEP1 (roots similar or equal to m(Z)) with the DELPHI detector during the years 1992-1995. The corresponding integrated luminosity is 138.5 pb(-1). The QED predictions have been tested over the whole Q(2) range accessible at LEP1 (from several GeV2/c(4) to several hundred GeV2/c(4)) by comparing experimental distributions with distributions resulting from Monte Carlo simulations using various generators. Selected events are used to extract the leptonic photon structure function F-2(gamma). Azimuthal correlations are used to obtain information on additional structure functions, F-A(gamma) and F-B(gamma), which originate from interference terms of the scattering amplitudes. The measured ratios F-A(gamma)/F-2(gamma) and F-B(gamma)/F-2(gamma) are significantly different from zero and consistent with QED predictions.

Abstract

Muon pair production in the process e+e- -> e+e-mu+mu- is studied using the data taken at LEP1 (sqrt(s) \simeq m_Z) with the DELPHI detector during the years 1992-1995. The corresponding integrated luminosity is 138.5 pb^{-1}. The QED predictions have been tested over the whole Q^2 range accessible at LEP1 (from several GeV^2/c^4 to several hundred GeV^2/c^4) by comparing experimental distributions with distributions resulting from Monte Carlo simulations using various generators. Selected events are used to extract the leptonic photon structure function F_2^\gamma. Azimuthal correlations are used to obtain information on additional structure functions, F_A^\gamma and F_B^\gamma, which originate from interference terms of the scattering amplitudes. The measured ratios F_A^\gamma/F_2^\gamma and F_B^\gamma/F_2^\gamma are significantly different from zero and consistent with QED predictions., Comment: 23 pages, 13 figures
