Direct Photon Production in Association with a Heavy Quark

In this Thesis we present the Next-To-Leading-Order calculation, O(ααs2), of the inclusive cross section for a photon and a heavy quark (charm or bottom), p bar p / pp γ + Q +X, (Q=c,b) at hadron colliders. We include fragmentation effects through the Next-To-Leading-Order. This calculation is perfo...
