kt - factorization and CCFM - the solution for describing the hadronic final states - everywhere ?

Abstract

The basic ideas of kt-factorization and CCFM parton evolution is discussed. The unintegrated gluon densities, obtained from CCFM fits to the proton structure function data at HERA are used to predict hadronic final state cross sections like jet production at HERA, but also comparisons with recent measurements of heavy quark production at the Tevatron are presented. Finally, the kt-factorization approach is applied to Higgs production at high energy hadron hadron colliders and the transverse momentum spectrum of Higgs production at the LHC is calculated.Comment: to be published in MPLA, replaced with new reference
