Book Determination of the Strong Coupling Constant   alpha  sub S  and a Test of Perturbative QCD Using W   Jets Processes in the D0 Detector

Download or read book Determination of the Strong Coupling Constant alpha sub S and a Test of Perturbative QCD Using W Jets Processes in the D0 Detector written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The D0 experiment has accumulated data for a study of inclusive W production corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 14.3 [plus-minus] 1.7 pb[sup [minus]1] during the 1992--1993 Fermilab Tevatron collider run. The total number of W [yields] e + [nu] candidates is 9770. The ratio of the number of W + 1 jet events to that of W + 0 jet events has been measured as a function of jet minimum E[sub T]. Using this ratio the strong coupling constant, [alpha][sub s] at Q[sup 2] = M[sub W][sup 2] is measured to be [alpha][sub s](M[sub W][sup 2]) = 0.124 [plus-minus] 0.005(stat) [plus-minus] 0.006(MC) [plus-minus] 0.008(theory)[sub [minus]0.022][sup +0.026](sys) or ([sub [minus]0.025][sup +0.028] combined) with a jet minimum E[sub T] of 25 GeV. A quantitative test of perturbative QCD has been made by comparing the experimentally measured ratio with the theoretical predictions. The theoretical predictions of the ratio in both the leading order and next-to-leading order are in good agreement with the measured ratio.

Book A Study of the Strong Coupling Constant Using W  Jets Processes

Download or read book A Study of the Strong Coupling Constant Using W Jets Processes written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ratio of the number of W+ 1 jet to W+ 0 jet events is measured with the D0 detector using data from, the 1992--93 Tevatron Collider run. For the W[yields] e[nu] channel with a minimum jet E[sub T] cutoff of 25 GeV, the experimental ratio is 0.065[+-] 0.003(stat)[+-] 0.007(sys). Next-to-Leading order QCD predictions for various parton distributions agree well with each other and are all over one standard deviation below the measurement. Varying the strong coupling constant[alpha][sub s] in both the parton distributions and the partonic cross sections simultaneously does not remove this discrepancy.
