In perturbative QCD, the masses of the hadrons involved in high energy reactions can usually be neglected. However, in the case of Kaon production in electron-proton collisions at low (and not so low) beam energies this may not be a good…
We calculate the $cos~2 \phi$ asymmetry in $J/\psi$ production in electron-proton collision for the kinematics of the planned electron-ion collider (EIC). This directly probes the Weisz\"acker-Williams (WW) type linearly polarized gluon…

Vector-boson fusion processes constitute an important class of reactions at hadron colliders, both for signals and backgrounds of new physics in the electroweak interactions. We consider what is commonly referred to as W+W- production via…
