We report the results on partial production cross sections for Z=2 projectile fragments emitted in 28Si-emulsion interactions at 3.7 A GeV. Scaling behaviour of the multiplicity distribution of Z=2 PFs has been checked. The emission angle of Z=2 PFs has been measured and pseudorapidity distributions for these PFs have been obtained. We observe that the value of momentum spread σ(p) for Z=2 PFs grows with increasing mass number of the projectile. The emission of Z=2 PFs is consistent with a single source with an excitation energy of about 8.9 MeV. The data has been compared with available data reported for lighter as well as heavier projectiles at the same and/or different energies.

This paper presents data on the emission of helium fragments due to break up of 200 A GeV 32S ions in collision with emulsion nuclei. A total of 499 minimum bias events have been studied in an emulsion stack and 97 events in emulsion chambers. Emission angles of He fragments have been measured with high precision. This data has been compared with data of breakup of heavier as well as lighter projectiles and we observe that the value of the momentum spread, σ(p), increases with increasing projectile mass. The bulk part of the helium emission is consistent with a single source for helium fragments with an average excitation energy of (9.1±0.9) MeV. A tail of a few (<1%) He fragments with higher momenta is observed.

Nuclear emulsions are used to investigate spallations produced by 108 GeV/c 24Mg nuclei. The main experimental characteristics (inelastic cross-sections and multiplicities of various types of secondary particles and their dependence on the masses of the colliding nuclei) in inelastic interactions of 24Mg nuclei with nuclei of nuclear emulsion at 4.5 GeV/c per nucleon have been studied. The integral multiplicity distribution of disintegrated particles from target nuclei is used to separate the inelastic interactions with the free hydrogen (H), the light (CNO), and the heavy (AgBr) nuclei. Multiplicity scaling in the shower particles obeys a scaling function of Koba-Neilsen-Olesen (KNO) type in this energy region.

The double-differentialπ±production cross sections in interactions of charged pions on targets at high momentums are analyzed by using a multicomponent Erlang distribution which is obtained in the framework of a multisource thermal model. The calculated results are compared and found to be in agreement with the experimental data at the incident momentums of 3, 5, 8, and 12 GeV/c measured by the HARP Collaboration. It is found that the source contributions to the mean momentum of charged particles and to the distribution width of particle momentums decrease with increase of the emission angle, and the source number and temperature do not show an obvious dependence on the emission angle of the considered particle.

The total and partial production cross-sections of the multiple helium fragments emitted in 10.7A GeV 197 Au –emulsion interactions are reported and compared with those obtained from different projectiles at high energies. The multiplicity distributions of the helium fragments exhibit a KNO scaling. The dependence of Cq moments and 〈nα〉 on the mass number of the incident beams is plotted.

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 predictions for heavy-quark production at the Large Hadron Collider making use of the $$ \overline{\mathrm{MS}} $$ MS ¯ and MSR renormalization schemes for the heavy-quark mass as alternatives to the widely used on-shell renormalization scheme. We compute single and double differential distributions including QCD corrections at next-to-leading order and investigate the renormalization and factorization scale dependence as well as the perturbative convergence in these mass renormalization schemes. The implementation is based on publicly available programs, MCFM and xFitter, extending their capabilities. Our results are applied to extract the top-quark mass using measurements of the total and differential $$ t\overline{t} $$ t t ¯ production cross-sections and to investigate constraints on parton distribution functions, especially on the gluon distribution at low x values, from available LHC data on heavy-flavor hadro-production.
