Parton distribution effects in the direct photon production at hadron collisions

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

Parton distribution functions are crucial to understand the internal kinematics of hadrons. There are currently a large number of distribution functions on the market, and thanks to today's technology, performing computational analysis of the differential cross-sections has become more accessible. Despite technological advances, accurately accessing to the internal structure of hadrons remains a difficult task from a theoretical point of view. In this work, we analyze the impact on the differential cross-sections when updating the sets of parton distribution and fragmentation functions, for the production of one hadron plus a direct photon at the energy scale of RHIC and LHC experiments.
