Theoretical calculation of the cross-section for pair production in a proton-proton collision

Теоретическое выисление поперечного сечения рождения пар в протон-протонных соударениях

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

The differential cross-section for electron-pair production in a proton-proton collision is calculated. Standard perturbation methods with retarded interactions are used throughout the calculation. A typical result is of the order of a tenth of a microbarn.

Riassunto

Si calcola la sezione d’urto differenziale per produzione di coppie di elettroni nelle collisioni protone-protone. In tutto il calcolo si usano i metodi perturbativi standard con interazioni ritardate. Un risultato tipico è dell’ordine di un decimo di μb.

Резюме

Вычисляется дифференциалъное поперечное сечение для рождения злектронных пар в протон-протонных соударениях. Для вычисления исполъзуются стандартные методы теории возмущений с запаздывающими взаимодействиями. Типичный резулътат имеет порядок десятой микробарна.
