Abstract

We discuss cc and bb pair productions at ep collider for studying extremely small x(g) region. It has been shown that Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) has a reach of about x(g)>10^-6. The aim of this work is to show that the PDF uncertainties in the heavy flavour production. Maximum difference of cross section between PDFs 60% has been found in the process of ep→ eqqX.
