Jet Production by Virtual Photons
نویسنده
چکیده
The production of jets is studied in collisions of virtual photons, γp and γγ, specifically for applications at HERA and LEP2. Photon flux factors are convoluted with matrix elements involving either direct or resolved photons and, for the latter, with parton distributions of the photon. Special emphasis is put on the range of uncertainty in the modeling of the resolved component. The resulting model is compared with existing data. To appear in the Proceedings of the International Conference on the Structure and Interactions of the Photon; Photon 99, 23-27 May 1999, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.

Some aspects of extracting the information on the structure of virtual photons from jet production in ep and e + e − collisions are discussed. 1 Virtual particles-why, where and how? Measuring the dependence of the structure of the photon at short distance on its virtuality provides new information on strong interaction dynamics. The results of first attempts in this direction have recently bee...
متن کاملForward jet production at HERA
We discuss forward jet production data recently published by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA. We review how several Monte-Carlo models compare to the data. QCD calculations based on the BFKL formalism and on fixed NLO perturbation theory with and without resolved virtual photons are described. ‡ Invited talk at the Ringberg Workshop New Trends in HERA Physics 1999, Ringberg Castle, Teger...
متن کاملJet Photoproduction in Peripheral Heavy-Ion Collisions
In peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider, jet+jet and photon+jet final states can be produced when a photon from the virtual photon field surrounding the nucleus interacts with a parton in the opposite nucleus (direct production). The virtual photon may also fluctuate into states with multiple gluons and qq pairs (resolved production), opening more channels f...
متن کاملPRA-HEP 99-07 Interpreting virtual photon interactions in terms of parton distribution functions
Interactions of virtual photons are analyzed in terms of photon structure. It is argued that the concept of parton distribution functions is phenomenologically very useful even for highly virtual photons involved in hard collisions. This claim is illustrated on leading order expressions for F γ 2 (x, P 2, Q2) and effective parton distribution function Deff(x, P 2, Q2) relevant for jet productio...
