Abstract:We describe the determination of the heavy quarks structure functions F QQ 2,L with help of the scaling properties. We observe that the structure functions for inclusive charm and bottom production exhibits geometric scaling at low x. The geometrical scaling means that the heavy quark structure function is a function of only one dimensionless variable τ ≡Q 2 /Q 2 sat (x) including quark mass. These results are valid for any value of δ, being x −δ the behavior of the parton densities at low x. The determination… Show more
