Analysis of Charm Pair Production at the LHC

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-03-03 v1

Abstract

The DGLAP and CCFM approaches to perturbative QCD evolution have been investigated by examining correlations of charmed hadron pairs in pppp collisions at s=7\sqrt{s}=7 TeV. The theoretical models are compared to the data taken by the LHCb experiment. Differences in the parton kinematics between the two approaches are discussed. In general a model incorporating NLO diagrams matched to parton showers describes the data best.
