7. IMFP2006 - Day 2 April 4, 2006 Rick Field – Florida/CDF/CMSPage 7 Comparisons with Theory  NLO calculations compatible within errors?  The p T shapes are consistent with the theory for the D mesons, but the measured cross section are a factor of about ~1.5 higher! Ratio of Data to Theory Next step is to study charm-anticharm correlations to learn about the contributions from different production mechanisms: “flavor creation” “flavor Excitation” “gluon splitting”

8. IMFP2006 - Day 2 April 4, 2006 Rick Field – Florida/CDF/CMSPage 8 Bottom Quark Production at the Tevatron  Important to have good leading (or leading-log) order QCD Monte-Carlo model predictions of collider observables.  The leading-log QCD Monte-Carlo model estimates are the “base line” from which all other calculations can be compared.  If the leading-log order estimates are within a factor of two of the data, higher order calculations might be expected to improve the agreement.  If a leading-log order estimate is off by more than a factor of two, it usually means that one has overlooked something.  I see no reason why the QCD Monte-Carlo models should not qualitatively describe heavy quark production (in the same way they qualitatively describe light quark and gluon production). QCD Monte-Carlo leading order “Flavor Creation” is a factor of four below the data!  “Something is goofy” (Rick Field, CDF B Group Talk, December 3, 1999). Tevatron Run 1 b-Quark Cross Section Extrapolation of what is measured (i.e. B- mesons) to the parton level (i.e. b-quark)! CDF Run 1 1999

9. IMFP2006 - Day 2 April 4, 2006 Rick Field – Florida/CDF/CMSPage 9 The Sources of Heavy Quarks  We do not observe c or b quarks directly. We measure D-mesons (which contain a c-quark) or we measure B-mesons (which contain a b-quark) or we measure c-jets (jets containing a D-meson) or we measure b-jets (jets containing a B-meson). Leading Order Matrix Elements Leading-Log Order QCD Monte-Carlo Model (LLMC) (structure functions)× (matrix elements)× (Fragmentation) + (initial and final-state radiation: LLA)

10. IMFP2006 - Day 2 April 4, 2006 Rick Field – Florida/CDF/CMSPage 10 Other Sources of Heavy Quarks  In the leading-log order Monte-Carlo models (LLMC) the separation into “flavor creation”, “flavor excitation”, and “gluon splitting” is unambiguous, however at next to leading order the same amplitudes contribute to all three processes! Next to Leading Order Matrix Elements “Flavor Excitation” (LLMC) corresponds to the scattering of a b-quark (or bbar-quark) out of the initial-state into the final-state by a gluon or by a light quark or antiquark. “Gluon-Splitting” (LLMC) is where a b-bbar pair is created within a parton shower or during the the fragmentation process of a gluon or a light quark or antiquark. Here the QCD hard 2- to-2 subprocess involves only gluons and light quarks and antiquarks. Amp(gg→QQg) = ++  (gg→QQg) = 2 and there are interference terms!

11. IMFP2006 - Day 2 April 4, 2006 Rick Field – Florida/CDF/CMSPage 11 Inclusive b-quark Cross Section  Data on the integrated b-quark total cross section (P T > PTmin, |y| < 1) for proton-antiproton collisions at 1.8 TeV compared with the QCD Monte-Carlo model predictions of PYTHIA 6.158 (CTEQ3L, PARP(67)=4). The four curves correspond to the contribution from “flavor creation”, “flavor excitation”, “gluon splitting”, and the resulting total.

12. IMFP2006 - Day 2 April 4, 2006 Rick Field – Florida/CDF/CMSPage 12 All three sources are important at the Tevatron! Conclusions from Run 1  All three sources are important at the Tevatron and the QCD leading-log Monte-Carlo models do a fairly good job in describing the majority of the b-quark data at the Tevatron.  We should be able experimentally to isolate the individual contributions to b-quark production by studying b-bbar correlations find out in much greater detail how well the QCD Monte-Carlo models actually describe the data.  One has to be very careful when the experimenters extrapolate to the parton level and publish parton level results. The parton level is not an observable! Experiments measure hadrons! To extrapolate to the parton level requires making additional assumptions that may or may not be correct (and often the assumptions are not clearly stated or are very complicated). It is important that the experimenters always publish the corresponding hadron level result along with their parton level extrapolation.  One also has to be very careful when theorists attempt to compare parton level calculations with experimental data. Hadronization and initial/final-state radiation effects are almost always important and theorists should embed their parton level results within a parton-shower/hadronization framework (e.g. HERWIG or PYTHIA).
