Comparative Study of the Hadronic Production of $B_c$ Mesons

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The full order αs4\alpha_s^4 perturbative QCD calculation of the production of BcB_c mesons at the Tevatron is compared with the fragmentation approximation. The non-fragmentation diagrams, in which two or more quarks and/or gluons can simultaneously be nearly on-shell, are important unless PTMBcP_T\gg M_{B_c}.
