Energy Consumption and Jet Multiplicity from the Leading Log BFKL Evolution
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the associated jet multiplicity arising from t–channel BFKL gluon evolution in forward dijet production at hadron colliders. Previous results have shown that the effect of conserving overall energy and momentum is to introduce a pdf suppression that completely compensates the predicted exponential BFKL rise with rapidity difference between the leading dijets. However, we show that there is still expected to be a significant amount of BFKL radiation, especially in the central region, and we give predictions for the multiplicity of the resulting mini–jets at the LHC.

Exact solution of BFKL equation in jet-physics
It has been recently found that the heavy quark-antiquarkQQ̄ pair multiplicity, in certain phase space region (QQ̄ at short distance, soft and with small velocity), satisfies an evolution equation formally similar to the BFKL equation for the high energy scattering amplitude. We find the exact solution of the QQ̄-equation and discuss the differences with the BFKL scattering amplitude
متن کاملBfkl Signatures at a Linear Collider
The BFKL dynamics can be successfully tested at the future high energy ee linear collider. The total γγ cross-section is calculated in the Leading Log QCD dipole picture of BFKL dynamics, and compared with the one from 2-gluon exchange. The rapidity dependence of the cross-section remains a powerful tool to increase the ratio between the BFKL and the 2-gluon cross-sections and is more sensitive...
متن کاملMulti-jet Processes in the High Energy Limit of Qcd
We discuss how the multi-Regge factorisation of QCD amplitudes can be used in the study of multi-jet processes at colliders. We describe how the next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) BFKL evolution can be combined with energy and momentum conservation. By recalculating the quark contribution to the next-to-leading logarithmic corrections to the BFKL kernel we can study several properties of the NLL...
متن کاملAzimuthal decorrelation of forward and backward jets at the Tevatron
We analyse the azimuthal decorrelation of ‘Mueller-Navelet’ dijets produced in the pp̄ collisions at Tevatron energies using a BFKL framework which incorporates dominant subleading effects. We show that these effects significantly reduce the decorrelation yet they are still insufficient to give satisfactory description of experimental data. However a good description of the data is obtained afte...
متن کاملEnergy and Virtuality Scale Dependence in Quark and Gluon Jets
We discuss some important issues concerning multiplicities in quark and gluon jets in ee annihilation. In QCD the properties of a jet in general depend on two scales, the energy and virtuality of the jet. Frequently theoretical predictions apply to a situation where these scales coincide, while for experimental data they are often different. Thus an analysis to extract e.g. the asymptotic multi...
