Probing small x(g) region with the LHeC based gamma-p colliders

Abstract

Potential of the LHeC for probing small x(g) region via c\bar{c} and b\bar{b} production have been investigated. Obtained results clearly show the advantage of gamma-p collider option. Measurement of x(g) down to 3\times10^{-6} seems to be reachable which is two order smaller than HERA coverage.
