Perturbative predictions for B_c meson production in hadronic collisions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

Perturbative cross section for direct B_c meson production in gluon gluon scattering g g --> B_c^+ b \bar{c} is calculated and compared with other existing results. Predictions for hadronic B_c production at Tevatron and LHC are presented and the main sources of uncertainties are discussed.
