Saturation and forward jets in proton-lead collisions at the LHC

Heikki Mäntysaari, Hannu Paukkunen

We investigate the forward-jet energy spectrum within the Color Glass Condensate framework at 5 TeV center-of-mass energy. In particular, we focus on the kinematic range covered by…

Double D-meson production in proton-proton and proton-lead collisions at the LHC

Ilkka Helenius, Hannu Paukkunen

We consider the simultaneous production of two heavy-flavoured hadrons - particularly D mesons - at the LHC. We base our calculations on collinearly factorized QCD at next-to-leadi…

Constraints for nuclear PDFs from the LHCb D-meson data

Kari J. Eskola, Ilkka Helenius, Petja Paakkinen +1

We quantify the impact of LHCb D-meson measurements at on the EPPS16 and nCTEQ15 nuclear PDFs. In our study, the theoretical description of D-meson produc…

A QCD analysis of LHCb D-meson data in p+Pb collisions

Kari J. Eskola, Ilkka Helenius, Petja Paakkinen +1

We scrutinize the recent LHCb data for D-meson production in p+Pb collisions within a next-to-leading order QCD framework. Our calculations are performed in the SACOT-$m_{\rm T…

Hadroproduction of open heavy flavour for PDF analyses

Ilkka Helenius, Hannu Paukkunen

Due to the large masses of the charm and bottom quarks, their production cross sections are calculable within the perturbative QCD. This makes the heavy-quark mesons important obse…

Nuclear gluons at RHIC in a multi-observable approach

Ilkka Helenius, John Lajoie, Joseph D. Osborn +2

We explore the possibility of measuring nuclear gluon distributions at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) with proton-nucleus collisions. In add…
