Low Pt heavy flavour production at CMS and ZEUS — •Nazar Stefaniuk and Achim Geiser — Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), Notkestrasse 85, Hamburg

The beauty and charm quark masses provide perturbative scales which can be exploited for QCD measurements even in the very low Pt range. The techniques which allow us to go to the minimal threshold in Pt are explained.

The main goal of the analysis is to measure the inclusive heavy flavour cross sections. The study of charm meson production helps to understand the low Pt behaviour of the charm cross section. The extension to low Pt beauty production is also reported.
