Leading log radiative corrections to polarized heavy flavour leptoproduction

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-30 v2

Abstract

O(\alpha) QED radiative corrections to polarized neutral current leptoproduction of heavy quark flavours are calculated in the leading log approximation for HERMES, COMPASS, and HERA kinematics. Besides the inclusive case, we derive general zhz_h-differential formulae for the polarized boson gluon fusion process and use them to calculate radiative corrections to semi-inclusive polarized heavy flavour production in the case of HERA kinematics.
