7 Jul 1998 | | Journal: | Phys.Atom.Nucl. 62 (1999) 1572-1581; Yad.Fiz. 62 (1999) 1680-1692 | | Subject: | nucl-th hep-ph | | Affiliation: | JINR Dubna, IThP Kiev | | Abstract: | The double coherent and non-coherent diffractive production of heavy quark - antiquark pairs ($Q ar{Q}$) in heavy ion scattering at high energies (LHC) is considered. The total and differential cross sections of these processes with the formation of $c ar{c}$ and $b ar{b}$ pairs in $pp$, $CaCa$ and $PbPb$ collisions are evaluated. The contribution of the considered mechanisms is a few per cent of the number of heavy quark - antiquark pairs obtained in the processes of hard (QCD) scattering, and it will be taken into account in the registration of $c$, $b$ quarks or, for instance, in the study of the heavy quarkonia suppression effects in Quark - Gluon Plasma, in the search for intermediate mass Higgs bosons and so on. It is shown that the cross section of the coherent scattering process is great enough. This makes it suitable for studying collective effects in nuclear interactions at high energies. An example of such effects is given: large values of the invariant mass of a $Q ar{Q}$pair, $M_{Q ar{Q}} gsim 100$ GeV, in association with a large rapidity gap between diffractive jets $Delta eta > 5$. | | Source: | arXiv, nucl-th/9807019 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
