Collinear factorization with non-zero quark virtuality in a spectator model
ORAL
Abstract
In perturbative QCD, the masses of the hadrons involved in high energy reactions can usually be neglected. However, in the case of production of Kaons in electron-proton collisions at low (and not so low) beam energies this may not be a good approximation. In particular, a recent proposal to include hadron masses in theoretical calculations shows how these Hadron Mass Corrections can explain a large discrepancy observed in measurements performed at the HERMES and COMPASS experiments. In this talk, I will present some preliminary spectator model calculations designed to test the range of validity of the approximations needed in the proposed factorization scheme.
