Three-jet Angular Correlations and Subjet Distributions at Zeus
نویسنده
چکیده
Besides structure function measurements and jet physics, there is a lively collection of more specific QCD analyses at HERA. In this contribution we present three-jet angular correlations and subjet distributions measured in ep collisions with the ZEUS detector. The angular correlations provide sensitivity to the color factors of the underlying gauge group and thus facilitate tests of basic properties of the strong interaction. The subjet distributions allow tests of the QCD radiation pattern within a jet in the perturbative regime.

Measurement of subjet multiplicities in neutral current deep inelastic scattering at HERA and determination of α s ZEUS
The subjet multiplicity has been measured in neutral current ep interactions at Q > 125 GeV 2 with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 38.6 pb. Jets were identified in the laboratory frame using the longitudinally invariant kT cluster algorithm. The number of jet-like substructures within jets, known as the subjet multiplicity, is defined as the number of clusters resolv...
متن کاملThe ZEUS
Jet photoproduction, where the two highest transverse energy (E jet T) jets have E jet T above 6 GeV and a jet-jet invariant mass above 23 GeV, has been studied with the ZEUS detector at the HERA ep collider. Resolved and direct photoproduction samples have been separated. The cross section as a function of the angle between the jet-jet axis and the beam direction in the dijet rest frame has be...
متن کاملJet correlations at HERA
performed by the ZEUS experiment at HERA are presented. Events with a rapidity gap among the final-state jets in photoproduction are identified and used to study colour-singlet exchange processes. Several Monte Carlo models are considered for comparison with the measurements. In a separate study, jet angular correlation variables sensitive to the underlying gauge structure of the strong interac...
متن کاملAngular correlations in multi-jet final states from k⊥-dependent parton showers
We investigate parton-branching methods based on transverse-momentum dependent (TMD) parton distributions and matrix elements for the Monte Carlo simulation of multi-particle final states at high-energy colliders. We observe that recently measured angular correlations in ep final states with multiple hadronic jets probe QCD coherence effects in the space-like branching, associated with finite-a...
متن کاملDetermination of the Strong Coupling Constant Using Subjet Multiplicities in Neutral Current Deep Inelastic Scattering
The internal structure of the jets produced in neutral current interactions for Q > 125 GeV has been studied using the subjet multiplicity with the ZEUS detector at HERA. Jets are identified in the laboratory frame by applying the longitudinally invariant kT -cluster algorithm. Next-to-leading order QCD calculations have been obtained and compared to the data; a good agreement has been observed...
