We consider the production of charm by real and virtual photons. Special attention
is paid to diffractive charm production, which provides information on the gluonic content of
the Pomeron. Our calculations are based on the gluon distributions of the CKMT-model,
which is shown to lead to agreement with the data on open charm production in deep
inelastic scattering. We compare predictions for diffractive charm production of different
models for the distribution of gluons in the Pomeron. Experiments at HERA should be
able to discriminate between them. Predictions for beauty production in diffractive and
non-diffractive interactions of photons are also given.
I. INTRODUCTION
The production of heavy quarks in deep inelastic electron scattering from a proton has received
increasing attention recently, since this reaction is seen as a tool to probe the gluon distribution in the
nucleon. Due to the large mass of the quark, the reaction is believed to be driven by a perturbative
mechanism, photon-gluon fusion, and is therefore sensitive to the nucleonic gluon density. We consider here
in a consistent way the production of charm in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) as well as in hard diffractive
scattering. The latter process, while driven by the same basic reaction mechanism, probes a different gluon
density. As the diffractive processes are mostly seen as mediated by the Pomeron exchange, the relevant
quantity in diffractive production is then the gluon distribution in the Pomeron; a review can be found in
Ref. [1].
