An improved description of charm fragmentation data
Matteo Cacciari, Andrea Ghira, Simone Marzani +1
We consider the fragmentation of heavy quarks into heavy-flavoured hadrons, specifically the production of charmed mesons in collisions, at different centre-of-mass energi…
Heavy Quark Fragmentation in Collisions to NNLO+NNLL Accuracy in Perturbative QCD
Leonardo Bonino, Matteo Cacciari, Giovanni Stagnitto
Fragmentation of heavy quarks into heavy-flavoured hadrons receives both perturbative and non-perturbative contributions. We consider perturbative QCD corrections to heavy quark pr…
The partonic structure of the electron at the next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy in QED
V. Bertone, M. Cacciari, S. Frixione +1
By working in QED, we obtain the electron, positron, and photon Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) of the unpolarised electron at the next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. The PD…
Proton-Nucleus Collisions at the LHC: Scientific Opportunities and Requirements
C. A. Salgado, J. Alvarez-Muniz, F. Arleo +27
Proton-nucleus (p+A) collisions have long been recognized as a crucial component of the physics programme with nuclear beams at high energies, in particular for their reference rol…
Parton fragmentation in the vacuum and in the medium
S. Albino, F. Anulli, F. Arleo +38
We present the mini-proceedings of the workshop on ``Parton fragmentation in the vacuum and in the medium'' held at the European Centre for Theoretical Studies in Nuclear Physics a…
How sensitive are high-pt electron spectra at RHIC to heavy quark energy loss?
N. Armesto, M. Cacciari, A. Dainese +2
In nucleus-nucleus collisions, high-pt electron spectra depend on the medium modified fragmentation of their massive quark parents, thus giving novel access to the predicted mass h…
