Prof. M. Beatriz Gay Ducati (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (BR))05/07/2012, 09:45Track 6. QCD, Jets, Parton DistributionsParallel SessionsWe show how the AGBS model, originally developed for deep inelastic scattering applied to HERA data on the proton structure function, can also describe the RHIC data on single inclusive hadron yield for $d+Au$ and $p+p$ collisions through a new simultaneous fit.
