The photoproduction of D*(+/-) mesons has been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA at three different ep centre-of-mass energies, √s of 318, 251 and 225 GeV. For each data set, D*(+/-) mesons were required to have transverse momentum, pT(D*) , and pseudo-rapidity, eta(D*), in the ranges 1.9 < pT(D*) < 20 GeV and |eta(D*)| < 1.6. The events were required to have a virtuality of the incoming photon, Q2, of less than 1 GeV2. The dependence on √s was studied by normalising to the high-statistics measurement at √s = 318 GeV.

Abstract

The photoproduction of D*(+/-) mesons has been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA at three different ep centre-of-mass energies, √s of 318, 251 and 225 GeV. For each data set, D*(+/-) mesons were required to have transverse momentum, pT(D*) , and pseudo-rapidity, eta(D*), in the ranges 1.9 < pT(D*) < 20 GeV and |eta(D*)| < 1.6. The events were required to have a virtuality of the incoming photon, Q2, of less than 1 GeV2. The dependence on √s was studied by normalising to the high-statistics measurement at √s = 318 GeV. This led to the cancellation of a number of systematic effects both in data and theory. Predictions from next-to-leading-order QCD describe the √s dependence of the data well.
