Transversity and heavy quark production on hadron colliders
Abstract
The azimuthal asymmetry of heavy quarks production on double polarized proton-proton and proton-antiproton colliders are studied in this work at next-to-leading order in αs, with some details included. The purpose is to see whether the effect of extracted transversity distribution functions can be seen on present and near future colliders. All analytic one-loop hard coefficients are given. Numerical results for the asymmetry on proton-(anti)proton colliders are presented.
