In this article, we investigate the contribution of the high twist Feynman diagrams to the large-pT single pseudoscalar and vector mesons inclusive production cross section in two-photon collisions and we present the general formulae for the high and leading twist differential cross sections. The pion wave function where two non-trivial Gegenbauer coefficients a2 and a4 have been extracted from the CLEO data, Braun–Filyanov pion wave function, the asymptotic and the Chernyak–Zhitnitsky wave functions are all used in the calculations. For ρ-meson we used the Ball–Braun wave function. The results of the calculations reveal that the high twist cross sections, the ratio R, the dependence transverse momentum pT and the rapidity y of meson in the Φ CLEO (x, Q2) wave function case is very close to the Φ asy (x) asymptotic wave function case. It is shown that the high twist contribution to the cross section depends on the choice of the meson wave functions.

In this article, we investigate the contribution of the high twist Feynman diagrams to the large-pT pion production cross section in proton-proton collisions and we present the general formulae for the high and leading twist differential cross sections. The pion wave function where two non-trivial Gegenbauer coefficients a2 and a4 have been extracted from the CLEO data, two other pion model wave functions, P2, P3, the asymptotic and the Chernyak-Zhitnitsky wave functions are used in the calculations. The results of all the calculations reveal that the high twist cross sections, the ratios R, r, the dependence transverse momentum pT and the rapidity y of pion in the Φ CLEO (x,Q2) wave function case is very close to the Φ asy (x) asymptotic wave function case. It is shown that the high twist contribution to the cross section depends on the choice of the meson wave functions.

Contribution of the high twist Feynman diagrams to the dilepton production cross section in pion–hadron collisions is investigated. In calculations the asymptotic, Chernyak–Zhitnitsky and two other pion model wave functions P2, P3 are used. It is shown that this contribution depends on the choice of wave functions and for large dilepton transverse momentum pT and invariant mass Q in the limit [Formula: see text] exceeds the leading one by an order of magnitude. Perspectives of the Drell–Yan process in the context of the pion wave function investigation are discussed.

We calculate the contribution of the higher-twist Feynman diagrams to the large-[Formula: see text] inclusive gluon production cross-section in [Formula: see text] collisions in case of the running coupling and frozen coupling approaches within perturbative and holographic QCD. The structure of infrared renormalon singularities of the higher-twist subprocess cross-section is obtained and the resummed higher-twist cross-sections (Borel sum) with the ones obtained in the framework of the frozen coupling approach and leading-twist cross-section are compared and analyzed.

The nonrelativistic wave functions of 3 H and 3 He nuclei have been obtained on the basis of the experimentally measured charge form factors. The differential cross section of the elastic 3 He -nucleus scattering has been calculated with the help of the wave function derived. This cross section agrees with the experimental data on the elastic scattering of 3 He by 90 Zr , 120 Sn , and 208 Pb nuclei at 130 and 217 MeV. The integrated cross sections of various processes of 3 H and 3 He interaction with heavy nuclei have also been calculated.

Abstract We demonstrate how to efficiently expand cross sections for color-singlet production at hadron colliders around the kinematic limit of all final state radiation being collinear to one of the incoming hadrons. This expansion is systematically improvable and applicable to a large class of physical observables. We demonstrate the viability of this technique by obtaining the first two terms in the collinear expansion of the rapidity distribution of the gluon fusion Higgs boson production cross section at next-to-next-to leading order (NNLO) in QCD perturbation theory. Furthermore, we illustrate how this technique is used to extract universal building blocks of scattering cross section like the N-jettiness and transverse momentum beam function at NNLO.

Abstract We present the production cross section for a lepton-neutrino pair at the Large Hadron Collider computed at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO) in QCD perturbation theory. We compute the partonic coefficient functions of a virtual W± boson at this order. We then use these analytic functions to study the progression of the perturbative series in different observables. In particular, we investigate the impact of the newly obtained corrections on the inclusive production cross section of W± bosons, as well as on the ratios of the production cross sections for W+, W− and/or a virtual photon. Finally, we present N3LO predictions for the charge asymmetry at the LHC.

DMI could light up the RNA of the nucleus and the cytoplasm in living systems, which not only exhibits larger two-photon absorption cross-sections (981 GM), but also displays high-permeability to plasma membranes of vigorous cells.

The helium (4He) component of the primary particles in the galactic cosmic ray spectrum makes significant contributions to the total astronaut radiation exposure. 4He ions are also desirable for direct applications in ion therapy. They contribute smaller projectile fragmentation than carbon (12C) ions and smaller lateral beam spreading than protons. Space radiation protection and ion therapy applications need reliable nuclear reaction models and transport codes for energetic particles in matter. Neutrons and light ions (1H, 2H, 3H, 3He, and 4He) are the most important secondary particles produced in space radiation and ion therapy nuclear reactions; these particles penetrate deeply and make large contributions to dose equivalent. Since neutrons and light ions may scatter at large angles, double differential cross sections are required by transport codes that propagate radiation fields through radiation shielding and human tissue. This work will review the importance of 4He projectiles to space radiation and ion therapy, and outline the present status of neutron and light ion production cross section measurements and modeling, with recommendations for future needs.
