Heavy-quark hadroproduction in k T -factorization approach with unintegrated gluon distributions

We consider the processes of heavy-quark production using the unintegrated gluon distributions. The numerical predictions for high-energy nucleon-nucleon and photon-nucleon collisions of the k _T -factorization approach (semihard theory) are compared with the experimental data from the Tevatron collider and HERA. The total production cross sections and pT distributions are considered and they are in reasonable agreement with the data for reasonable values of QCD scale.
