Azimuthal decorrelations between QCD jets at all orders
نویسنده
چکیده
A quantity that promises to reveal important information on perturbative and non-perturbative QCD dynamics is the azimuthal decorrelation between jets in different hard processes. In order to access this information fixed-order NLO predictions need to be supplemented by resummation of logarithmic terms which are large in the region where the jets are nearly back-to-back in azimuth. In the present letter we carry out this resummation to next-to–leading logarithmic accuracy explaining the important role played by the recombination scheme in general resummations for such jet observables.

Azimuthal decorrelations of dijets in QCD
The study of jet cross sections constitutes one of the most important investigation tools for the physics of hadronic final states. These observables are favoured in many aspects, both theoretically and experimentally. First they are infrared and collinear safe, which makes it possible to compute them at all orders in QCD. Hadronisation corrections are quite small, being suppressed by inverse p...
متن کاملInclusive jet cross-sections and dijet azimuthal decorrelations with DØ
We present a preliminary measurement of the inclusive jet cross-sections based on an integrated luminosity of 378pb −1 acquired with the DØ detector between 2002 and 2004 at a center of mass energy of √ s = 1.96 TeV and a measurement of azimuthal dijet decorrelations based on an integrated luminosity of 150 pb −1. The cross section measurements are based on an iterative cone algorithm with a co...
متن کاملQcd Jet Results from the Tevatron
Hadronic jet production with large transverse momentum (pT ) provides useful tests of perturbative QCD (pQCD) calculations. The inclusive jet and dijet cross sections at large pT or large invariant dijet mass (Mjj) are directly sensitive to the strong coupling constant (αs) and parton density functions (PDF). Deviations from the theoretical predictions at high pT or Mjj, not explained by PDF or...
متن کاملD0 Measurement of the Dijet Azimuthal Decorrelations
Abstract. We present the D0 measurement of correlations in the azimuthal angle between the two largest transverse momentum jets produced in pp̄ collisions at a center-of-mass energy √ s = 1.96 TeV in the central rapidity region [1]. The results are based on an inclusive dijet event sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 150 pb−1. Data is in good agreement with next-to-leading order ...
متن کاملBeauty in photoproduction at HERA II with the ZEUS detector
The production of beauty quarks in ep collisions should be accurately calculable in perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) since the large mass of the b quark provides a hard scale. Therefore it is interesting to compare such predictions to results using photoproduction events where a low-virtuality photon, emitted by the incoming lepton, collides with a parton from the incoming proton. A me...
