Because of the top quark's very large mass, about 175~GeV, it now provides the best window into flavor physics. Thus, pair--production of top quarks at the Tevatron Collider is the best probe of this physics until the Large Hadron Collider…
The magnetic field created in high energy nuclear collisions will affect the dynamical processes in the QCD medium, especially the heavy quark production that happens in the initial stage of the collisions. We calculate in a strong magnetic…
Conventional perturbative QCD calculations on the production of a heavy quark ``$H$'' consist of two contrasting approaches: the usual QCD parton formalism uses the zero-mass approximation ($m_H=0$) once above threshold, and treats $H$ just…
