Electroproduction of heavy quarks at NLO

Abstract

A new next-to-leading order Monte Carlo program for the calculation of fully differential heavy quark cross sections in electroproduction is described. A comparison between the theoretical predictions and the latest charm production data from H1 and ZEUS at HERA is presented.
