Gluon Radiation Patterns in Hard Scattering Events∗
نویسنده
چکیده
The radiation pattern of relatively soft gluons in hard scattering events is sensitive to the underlying color structure. As an example I consider heavy Higgs production via weak boson fusion at the LHC. A minijet veto, which makes use of the different patterns for signal and backgrounds, provides an effective Higgs

Color singlet two gluon exchange provides a perturbative model for the pomeron. This mechanism is thought to explain the production of rapidity gaps in hard dijet events at the Tevatron. It is shown that in qQ scattering via two gluon color singlet exchange the emission of soft gluons follows closely the pattern found for t-channel photon exchange. Gluon emission is strongly suppressed between ...
متن کاملProbing the Gauge Content of Heavy Resonances with Soft Radiation
The use of energy flow is investigated as a diagnostic tool for determining the color SU(3) representation of new resonances. It is found that the pattern of soft gluon radiation into a rapidity gap depends on color flow in the hard scattering, and reflects the gauge content of new physics. The massive soft anomalous dimension matrix for rapidity gap events is introduced for describing soft glu...
متن کاملEvolution of Color Exchange In QCD Hard Scattering
In QCD hard scattering cross sections, the color content of the underlying hard scattering evolves with a factorization scale. This evolution is controlled by an anomalous dimension matrix, specific to each hard-scattering reaction. Anomalous dimensions are determined from the renormalization of products of ordered exponentials of the gauge field, which describe the coherent radiation of gluons...
متن کاملHadron collisions and the fifth form factor
Logarithmically enhanced effects due to radiation of soft gluons at large angles in 2 → 2 QCD scattering processes are treated in terms of the ”fifth form factor” that accompanies the four collinear singular Sudakov form factors attached to incoming and outgoing hard partons. Unexpected symmetry under exchange of internal and external variables of the problem is pointed out for the anomalous di...
متن کاملHiggs Boson Production in Association with Multiple Hard Jets
We elucidate a new technique for estimating the production of multiple (at least two) hard jets in Higgs production via gluon-gluon fusion. The approach is based upon high energy factorisation, with the region of applicability extended by constraints on the analytic behaviour of the scattering amplitudes stemming from known all-order results. The method approximates both real and virtual correc...
