Unintegrated parton densities applied to heavy quark production in the CCFM approach

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

The application of k_t - factorization supplemented with the CCFM small-x evolution equation to heavy quark production is discussed. The b-b_bar production cross sections at the TEVATRON can be consistently described using the k_t-factorization formalism together with the unintegrated gluon density obtained within the CCFM evolution approach from a fit to HERA F_2 data. Special attention is drawn to the comparison with measured visible cross sections. The visible measured cross sections at HERA are compared to the hadron level Monte Carlo generator CASCADE.
