Description

We discuss heavy quark production in e-p collisons at LEP/LHC energies. The various production mechanisms as well as background processes are studied. We succeed in separating the direct photon-gluon fusion channel, and show how to measure the gluon density in both open and hidden heavy quark production at LEP/LHC. We specify the explorable ranges in x and Q2 and estimate the errors with which the gluon density may be reconstructed at LEP/LHC. (orig.)
