Study of processes with heavy quarks in the initial state
Fabio Maltoni
The difference between predictions obtained with a massive scheme, where a heavy quark is treated as a finale massive state and the massless scheme, where the heavy quark is viewed as an initial parton may be extremely sizable. The aim of the project is to gain a better understanding of the size of the collinear logarithms arising when a heavy quark is treated as a final massive state and to investigate its kinematical origin.
External collaborators: Maria Ubiali, Giovanni Ridolfi.
