Measurement of neutral currente±pcross sections at high Bjorkenxwith the ZEUS detector

Abstract: The neutral current e AE p cross section has been measured up to values of Bjorken x ≅ 1 with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 187 pb −1 of e − p and 142 pb −1 of e þ p collisions at ffiffi ffi s p ¼ 318 GeV. Differential cross sections in x and Q 2 , the exchanged boson virtuality, are presented for Q 2 ≥ 725 GeV 2. An improved reconstruction method and greatly increased amount of data allows a finer binning in the high-x region of the neutral current cross section and leads to a me… Show more

“…The individual H1 and ZEUS measurements used in the combination were published previously in Refs. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] and [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. The two collaborations employed different experimental techniques and used different detectors and methods for kinematic reconstruction.…”

“…Parton densities in hadrons play significant roles in understanding standard model processes as well as in the predictions for such processes at accelerators. The particle physics community have been so far successfully able to determine the global fits for parton distribution functions from various experiments in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) [1], CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) [2][3][4], ZEUS [5] at HERA. One of the important and interesting aspects of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is to determine the parton density at very small momentum fraction x, where x is also known as the Bjorken variable.…”

“…So far there have been indirect approaches in determining the gluon distribution by probing electron into proton and thus by measuring the proton structure function F 2 (x, Q 2 ), where Q 2 is the four momentum transferred squared or virtuality of the exchanged virtual photon, H1 [13] and ZEUS [5] at HERA made us being able to extract information about the gluon distributions in the formerly unexplored region of x and Q 2 . This method is however, indirect because at small-x F 2 (x, Q 2 ) actually probes the sea quark distribution, which are related via the coupled QCD evolution equations to the gluon distribution.…”

“…This facilitates detailed studies of electroweak (EW) effects. Recently, the ZEUS collaboration published a combined QCD and electroweak analysis [3] exploiting the ZEUS neutral current (NC) and charged current (CC) e + p and e − p inclusive cross sections for polarised beams [4][5][6][7]. For the analysis presented here, cross sections published by the H1 collaboration [8] for polarised beams were also considered.…”
