H1 and ZEUS Results on Beauty Production

arXiv:hep-ex/0405023

Abstract

The H1 and ZEUS experiments are measuring beauty production in ep collisions at HERA. The b quark mass provides a hard scale which allows a dedicated test of perturbative QCD. The latest results in photoproduction and deep inelastic scattering are presented and compared to the NLO QCD predictions as well as to LO + parton shower Monte Carlo simulations.
