The Catchment Area of Jets
نویسندگان
چکیده
The area of a jet is a measure of its susceptibility to radiation, like pileup or underlying event (UE), that on average, in the jet’s neighbourhood, is uniform in rapidity and azimuth. In this article we establish a theoretical grounding for the discussion of jet areas, introducing two main definitions, passive and active areas, which respectively characterise the sensitivity to pointlike or diffuse pileup and UE radiation. We investigate the properties of jet areas for three standard jet algorithms, kt, Cambridge/Aachen and SISCone. Passive areas for single-particle jets are equal to the naive geometrical expectation πR, but acquire an anomalous dimension at higher orders in the coupling, calculated here at leading order. The more physically relevant active areas differ from πR even for single-particle jets, substantially so in the case of the cone algorithms like SISCone with a Tevatron Run-II split–merge procedure. We compare our results with direct measures of areas in parton-shower Monte Carlo simulations and find good agreement with the main features of the analytical predictions. We furthermore justify the use of jet areas to subtract the contamination from pileup.

Effect of Micro-Catchment on indices of Rangeland Health Using Landscape Function Analysis Method
Water harvesting is the collection of runoff for productivity purposes, instead of runoff being left to cause erosion. In arid and semi-arid drought-prone areas, micro-catchments are widely used as a water harvesting method to improve rangeland condition. The aim of present study was to investigate the effects of micro-catchment on ecological indices of rangeland health in Ghick-Sheikhha, Jirof...
متن کاملInvestigating the effect of rainwater catchment systems on the vegetation characteristics of arid areas (Case study: Tasuki region of Sistan)
Excessive use of water and soil resources, especially in arid and semi-arid regions, increases soil erosion, destructive storms, the occurrence of dust, and desertification. Therefore, to prevent environmental problems in these areas, it is necessary to efficiently manage water and soil resources in arid and semi-arid regions. Rainwater catchment systems are one of the management and operationa...

This paper seeks to emphasize the flow variability in the Calnistea catchment by analyzing the local physiographic factors. The research has shown that the amount of precipitation that falls to the ground is low, the rocks in the region are soft, but highly permeable, gradients are gentle in most of the territory and vegetal cover is sparse and therefore cannot hold important amounts of water. ...
