Next to leading order eta production at hadron colliders

Abstract

Inclusive eta production at hadron colliders is considered,based on evaluation of eta fragmentation functions at next to leading order. Absolute predictions at LHC and SSC are presented, including the ratio $\eta /{\pi }^0$, together with the estimate of the theoretical uncertainty, as a possible neutral background to the $H\to \gamma \gamma$ detection.
