Factorization scheme dependence of the NLO inclusive jet cross section
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the factorization scheme dependence of the next-to-leading order inclusive one jet cross section dσ/dET . The scheme is varied parametrically along the direction that transforms the MS scheme to the DIS scheme: we introduce a parameter λ such that λ = 0 is MS and λ = 1 is DIS. The factorization scale μ is also varied. We observe a change of ±9% in the cross section for ET = 50 GeV when μ and λ are varied in the range −2 ≤ λ ≤ 2, ET /8 ≤ μ ≤ 2ET . This grows to ±32% for ET = 400 GeV. Typeset using REVTEX

متن کاملJet Physics
Recent measurements of the inclusive jet cross section, dijet cross section, dijet invariant mass distributions and strong coupling constant at TEVATRON, HERA and LEP colliders are presented in this paper. The comparisons with NLO perturbative QCD predictions are shown. In general consistency with QCD predictions is observed for a variety of processes and energy ranges. The observed discrepanci...
متن کاملOverview of Nnlo Qcd Corrections
We discuss the motivation for making predictions for jet cross sections at next-to-next-to-leading order. I describe the theoretical ingredients needed for such a calculation and briefly review the progress in the field. In the last decade there has been enormous progress in using perturbative QCD to predict and describe events containing jets. At the simplest lowest-order (LO) level, each jet ...
متن کاملCorrections to (2+1) Jet Cross Sections in Deep Inelastic Scattering
Complete next-to leading order QCD predictions for (2+1) jet cross sections and jet rates in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) based on a new parton level Monte Carlo program are presented. All relevant helicity contributions to the total cross section are included. Results on total jet cross sections as well as differential distributions in the basic kinematical variables x,W 2 and Q are shown f...
متن کاملAn Investigation of Uncertainties in the QCD NLO Predictions of the Inclusive Jet Cross Section in p̄p Collisions at √ s = 1 . 8 TeV and 630 GeV
Uncertainties in the NLO calculation of the inclusive jet cross section due to the choice of renormalization scale, parton distribution functions and clustering algorithm are explored. These are found to be similar in size to the current experimental uncertainties of the measured inclusive jet cross section at DØ and CDF.
