J. Kwiecinski et al., FORWARD PI(O) TRIGGER OF THE DEEP-INELASTIC PLUS JET PROBE OF BFKL DYNAMICS, Physical review. D. Particles and fields, 55(3), 1997, pp. 1273-1279
We predict the rate of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) events containi
ng an identified forward pi(0) that is expected in the experiments at
the DESY electron-proton collider HERA, in order to see if this proces
s can be used as an indicator of the underlying small x dynamics. We d
etermine the background due to deep inelastic events containing forwar
d photons which are fragments of the forward jet. We compare the DIS pi(0) cross section with that of the DIS + parent jet process.
