CUAUTLE, E; MALDONADO-CERVANTES, I.A.  y  MORA, G. Resolved component of the photon in heavy quark photoproduction. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2009, vol.55, n.1, pp.8-13. ISSN 0035-001X.

Heavy quarks in γ - N interactions are produced mainly by photon-gluon fusion. Nevertheless a small contribution to the total cross section comes from processes like those appearing in heavy quarks hadroproduction through the resolved component of the photon. Here we concentrate on the resolved contributions of the photon to heavy meson photoproduction. We discuss the calculation of the cross section to D's and B's, as well as its dependence on the fragmentation function and the center of mass energy available in the collisions.

Palabras llave : Heavy meson; production.
