hep - ph / 9706536 W + 1 jet to W + 0 jet Ratio at the Tevatron : A Hint of New Physics ?

چکیده
We interpret the reported disagreement between the measured ratio, R 10 , of the W + 1 jet cross-section to the W + 0 jet cross-section at the Tevatron and the Standard Model (SM) prediction, as the effect of interactions mediated by a colour-octet analogue of the W boson, the W 8. The presence of a W 8 with mass O(300) GeV, and with couplings to quarks and gluons of the order of electroweak strength, allows the observations of the D0 collaboration to be reproduced quite accurately. Such an interaction is not in contradiction with the present CDF data on W + W − or dijet production, though higher luminosities may reveal measurable effects.

We report on potential for measurement of W and Z boson production accompanied by jets. Of particular interest are jet multiplicity and PT distributions. The 10 to 100 pb−1 datasets expected in the startup year of operation of LHC are likely to already provide information beyond the reach of the Tevatron collider both in jet multiplicity and PT range. We are especially interested in understandi...
متن کاملCalculation of Z plus Four Jet Production at the Tevatron
We present the first calculation of Z + 4 jet production with heavy quark flavor identification at the Tevatron pp̄ collider. The Z + 4 jet channel is especially interesting as a normalizer for the W + 4 jet background to top quark signals, as a background to a possible t → cZ flavor-changing neutral-current (FCNC) decay signal, and as a background to missing-pT signals from gluino pairs. We als...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation on Slot air Jet impingement Heat Transfer between Horizontal Concentric Circular Cylinders
A numerical study has been carried out for slot air jet impingement cooling of horizontal concentric circular cylinders. The slot air jet is situated at the symmetry line of a horizontal cylinder along the gravity vector and impinges on the bottom of the outer cylinder which is designated as θ=0°. The outer cylinder is partially opened at the top with a width of W=30mm and is kept at constant t...
متن کاملA pr 1 99 7 Comment on the W + 1 jet to W + 0 jets ratio
To offer a possible resolution to the apparent discrepancy between the experimental and the theoretical values of the W + 1 jet to W + 0 jets ratio reported by the DØ group, we examine the effects of the multiple soft gluon radiation on the W boson production at the Tevatron. Based on the calculation of the W boson transverse momentum (Q T) distribution in the Collins-Soper-Sterman resummation ...
متن کاملWZ production at hadron colliders: Effects of nonstandard WWZ couplings and QCD corrections.
The process p p (−) → W±Z + X → `1 ν1`2 `2 + X is calculated to O(αs) for general C and P conserving WWZ couplings. At the Tevatron center of mass energy, the QCD corrections to WZ production are modest. At Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies, the inclusive QCD corrections are large, but can be reduced significantly if a jet veto is imposed. Sensitivity limits for the anomalous WWZ couplings a...
