Summary

This theoretical physics paper investigates the inclusive production of fully charmed tetraquarks in high-energy proton collisions using collinear fragmentation functions within a variable-flavour-number scheme. The authors derive novel DGLAP-evolving fragmentation functions encoding gluon and heavy-quark fragmentation channels, and provide predictions for tetraquark-plus-jet observables spanning LHC (14 TeV) to FCC (100 TeV) energies. The work contributes to understanding exotic hadron formation mechanisms at extreme energies using NLO+ hybrid factorisation frameworks.

UK applicability

This paper has no direct applicability to UK farming systems, soil health, nutrient density, or agricultural policy. It is a pure theoretical particle physics contribution with no relevance to food systems or agricultural research.

Key measures

Inclusive production cross-sections and observables for fully charmed tetraquarks at 14 TeV (LHC) and 100 TeV (FCC) centre-of-mass energies

Outcomes reported

This paper does not report outcomes relevant to agriculture, farming systems, or human health. It provides theoretical physics predictions for tetraquark particle production at high-energy colliders.
