Heavy quark production in $k_t$ factorization approach at LHC energies

TL;DR

This paper develops a new version of the $k_T$ factorization approach to better describe heavy quark production at LHC energies, showing reasonable agreement with experimental data.

Contribution

It introduces a novel formulation of the $k_T$ factorization method for high energy heavy quark production.

Findings

Results align with LHC experimental data

Improved theoretical description of heavy quark production

Validates the new $k_T$ factorization approach

Abstract

A new version of the $k_T$ factorization approach is formulated for the high energy heavy quark production. The results are in reasonable agreement with the experimental data at LHC energies.
