| Abstract |
The dynamics of QCD evolution at low values of Bjorken-x is studied via
the measurement of hard pi^0 probes in deeply inelastic positron proton
scattering with the H1 experiment. The pi^0 mesons are measured in a
region of small angles with respect to the proton remnant in the laboratory
frame, the so-called forward region. Differential cross sections for inclusive
pi^0 meson production are presented as a function of Bjorken-x and pi^0
transverse momentum, in different regions of the four momentum transfer
Q^2. The accompanying transverse energy flow around the pi^0 is also
studied. The data are used to discriminate between different QCD evolution
schemes for the parton ladder between proton and photon. |
