  • Hadronic Z decay events generated on the Z pole ($\sqrt{s} = 91.2$ GeV)

The charged particle multiplicity distribution of hadronic Z decays, as measured on the peak of the Z resonance using the ALEPH detector at LEP. The unfolding procedure was model independent, and the distribution was found to have a mean of $20.85 \pm 0.24$, Comparison with lower energy data supports the KNO scaling hypothesis. The shape of the multiplicity distribution is well described by a log-normal distribution, as predicted from a cascading model for multi-particle production.

Run details:
  • $e^+e^-\to$ jets with $\pi$ and $\eta$ decays turned off.

Earlier measurements at LEP of isolated hard photons in hadronic Z decays, attributed to radiation from primary quark pairs, have been extended in the ALEPH experiment to include hard photon production inside hadron jets. Events are selected where all particles combine democratically to form hadron jets, one of which contains a photon with a fractional energy $z > 0.7$. After statistical subtraction of non-prompt photons, the quark-to-photon fragmentation function, $D(z)$, is extracted directly from the measured 2-jet rate.

  • Inelastic events (non-diffractive and inelastic diffractive).

Measurements of cross-sections of inelastic and diffractive processes in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 900$, 2760 and 7000 GeV. The fractions of diffractive processes in inelastic collisions were determined from a study of gaps in charged particle pseudorapidity distributions. Single-diffractive events are selected with $M_{X} < 200\;\text{GeV}/c^2$ and double-diffractive events defined as NSD events with $\Delta\eta > 3$. To measure the inelastic cross-section, beam properties were determined with van der Meer scans using a simulation of diffraction adjusted to data. Note that these are experimental approximations to theoretical concepts -- it is not totally clear whether the data point values are model-independent.

Jets are identified and their properties studied using tracks measured by the ATLAS Inner Detector. Events are selected using a minimum-bias trigger, allowing the emergence of jets at low transverse momentum to be observed and for jets to be studied independently of the calorimeter. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-kt algorithm applied to tracks with two parameter choices, 0.4 and 0.6. An inclusive jet transverse momentum cross section measurement from 4 GeV to 80 GeV is shown, integrated over $|\eta| < 0.57$ and corrected to charged particle-level truth jets. The probability that a particular particle carries a fixed fraction of the jet momentum (fragmentation function) is also measured. All data is corrected to the particle level. ATTENTION - Data read from plots!

The underlying event measurements with the ATLAS detector at the LHC at the center of mass energies of 900 GeV and 7 TeV. The observables sensitive to the underlying event, i.e the charged particle density and charged pT sum, as well as their standard deviations and the average pT, are measured as functions of the leading track. A track pT cut of 500 MeV is applied for most observables, but the main profile plots are also shown for a lower track cut of 100 MeV, which includes much more of the soft cross-section. The angular distribution of the charged tracks with respect to the leading track is also studied, as are the correlation between mean transverse momentum and charged particle multiplicity, and the `plateau' height as a function of the leading track $|\eta|$.

  • QCD events at 7 TeV

The inclusive and dijet production cross-sections have been measured for jets containing $b$-hadrons ($b$-jets) in proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV, using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurements use data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 34 pb$^-1$. The $b$-jets are identified using either a lifetime-based method, where secondary decay vertices of $b$-hadrons in jets are reconstructed using information from the tracking detectors, or a muon-based method where the presence of a muon is used to identify semileptonic decays of $b$-hadrons inside jets. The inclusive $b$-jet cross-section is measured as a function of transverse momentum in the range $20 < pT < 400$ GeV and rapidity in the range $|y| < 2.1$. The $b\bar{b}$-dijet cross-section is measured as a function of the dijet invariant mass in the range $110 < $m_{jj}$ < 760$\;GeV, the azimuthal angle difference between the two jets and the angular variable $\chi$ in two dijet mass regions. The results are compared with next-to-leading-order QCD predictions. Good agreement is observed between the measured cross-sections and the predictions obtained using POWHEG+Pythia6. MC@NLO+Herwig shows good agreement with the measured $b\bar{b}$-dijet cross-section. However, it does not reproduce the measured inclusive cross-section well, particularly for central $b$-jets with large transverse momenta.

  • QCD events, 900\;GeV and 7\;TeV. $\Lambda$ and $K_S$ must be able to decay. Allow only charged decay modes to improve efficiency.

The production of $K_S$ and $\Lambda$ hadrons is studied in inelastic $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 0.9$ and 7 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using a minimum-bias trigger. The observed distributions of transverse momentum, rapidity, and multiplicity are corrected to hadron level in a model-independent way within well defined phase-space regions. The distribution of the production ratio of $\bar{\Lambda}$ to $\Lambda$ baryons is also measured. The results are compared with various Monte Carlo simulation models. Although most of these models agree with data to within 15 percent in the $K_S$ distributions, substantial disagreements with data are found in the $\Lambda$ distributions of transverse momentum.

  • Require QCD interactions at 7TeV. A substantial number of events are required to populate the large rapidity seperation region.

A measurement of the jet activity in rapidity intervals bounded by a dijet system. The fraction of events passing a veto requirement are shown as a function of both the rapidity interval size and the average transverse momentum of the dijet system. The average number of jets above the veto threshold are also shown as a function of the same variables. There are two possible selection criteria applied to data. Either the two highest transverse momentum jets or the jets most forward and backward in rapidity are taken to define the dijet system, where the veto threhsold is 20\;GeV. Additionally for the latter selection an alternative veto transverse momentum threshold which is equal to the average transverse momentum is applied. Jet selections are based on the anti-$k_t$ algorithm with $R=0.6$, $p_\perp > 20$\;GeV and $|y_\text{jet}| < 4.4$.

  • Minimum bias inelastic pp collision at 7 TeV including diffractive component and overall cross section.

Pseudorapidity gap distributions in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV are studied using a minimum bias data sample with an integrated luminosity of 7.1 inverse microbarns. Cross sections are measured differentially in terms of $\Delta \eta_F$, the larger of the pseudorapidity regions extending to the limits of the ATLAS sensitivity, at $\eta = \pm 4.9$, in which no final state particles are produced above a transverse momentum threshold $p_\perp$ cut. The measurements span the region $0 < \Delta \eta_F < 8$ for $200 < p_T\text{ cut} < 800\;\text{MeV}$. At small $\Delta \eta_F$, the data test the reliability of hadronisation models in describing rapidity and transverse momentum fluctuations in final state particle production. The measurements at larger gap sizes are dominated by contributions from the single diffractive dissociation process ($pp \to Xp$), enhanced by double dissociation ($pp \to XY$) where the invariant mass of the lighter of the two dissociation systems satisfies $M_Y \lesssim 7\;\text{GeV}$. The resulting cross section is $\mathrm{d} \sigma / \mathrm{d} \Delta \eta_F \sim 1$ mb for $\Delta \eta_F \gtrsim 3$. The large rapidity gap data are used to constrain the value of the pomeron intercept appropriate to triple Regge models of soft diffraction. The cross section integrated over all gap sizes is compared with other LHC inelastic cross section measurements.

Measurement of the ordering of charged hadrons in the azimuthal angle relative to the beam axis at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Data were recorded with the ATLAS detector at centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s} = 900\;\text{GeV}$ and $\sqrt{s} = 7\;\text{TeV}$. The correlations measured in a phase space region dominated by low-$p_\perp$ particles are not well described by conventional models of hadron production. The measured spectra show features consistent with the fragmentation of a QCD string represented by a helix-like ordered gluon chain.

Events with at least six charged particles are selected by a minimum-bias trigger. In addition to the differential distributions, the evolution of each event shape variable as a function of the leading charged-particle transverse momentum, charged-particle multiplicity, and summed transverse momentum is presented.

Distributions of the charged-particle multiplicity, the scalar sum of the transverse momentum of charged particles, and the average charged-particle pT are measured as functions of $p_\perp^\text{jet}$ in regions transverse to and opposite the leading jet for $4 \text{GeV} < p_\perp^\text{jet} < 100 \text{GeV}$. In addition, the $R$-dependence of the mean values of these observables is studied.

  • Inclusive diphoton $+ X$ events at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV.

The ATLAS experiment at the LHC has measured the production cross section of events with two isolated photons in the final state, in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV. The full data set collected in 2011, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.9 fb$^{-1}$, is used. The amount of background, from hadronic jets and isolated electrons, is estimated with data-driven techniques and subtracted. The total cross section, for two isolated photons with transverse energies above 25 GeV and 22 GeV respectively, in the acceptance of the electromagnetic calorimeter ($|\eta|<1.37$ and $1.52<|\eta|<2.37$) and with an angular separation $\Delta R>0.4$, is $44.0^{+3.2}_{-4.2}$ pb. The differential cross sections as a function of the di-photon invariant mass, transverse momentum, azimuthal separation, and cosine of the polar angle of the largest transverse energy photon in the Collins--Soper di-photon rest frame are also measured. The results are compared to the prediction of leading-order parton-shower and next-to-leading-order and next-to-next-to-leading-order parton-level generators.

A generic search for anomalous production of events with at least three charged leptons is presented. The search uses a pp-collision data sample at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV corresponding to 4.6/fb of integrated luminosity collected in 2011 by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Events are required to contain at least two electrons or muons, while the third lepton may either be an additional electron or muon, or a hadronically decaying tau lepton. Events are categorized by the presence or absence of a reconstructed tau-lepton or Z-boson candidate decaying to leptons. No significant excess above backgrounds expected from Standard Model processes is observed. Results are presented as upper limits on event yields from non-Standard-Model processes producing at least three prompt, isolated leptons, given as functions of lower bounds on several kinematic variables. Fiducial efficiencies for model testing are also provided. This Rivet module implements the event selection and the fiducial efficiencies to test various models for their exclusion based on observed/excluded limits.

Normalised differential cross sections as a function of $\phi^*$ are measured separately for electron and muon decay channels.

Analysis of charm quark fragmentation at 10.6 GeV, based on a data sample of 103 fb collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB accelerator. Fragmentation into charm is studied for the main charmed hadron ground states, namely $D^0$, $D^+$, $D^+_s$ and $\Lambda_c^+$, as well as the excited states $D^{*0}$ and $D^{*+}$. This analysis can be used to constrain charm fragmentation in Monte Carlo generators. As the original data are not corrected for the branching ratios of the decay modes used to observed the charm hadrons we also include distributions with unit normalisation which are more useful for Monte Carlo tuning.

CDF Run I color coherence analysis. Events with $\ge 3$ jets are selected and Et distributions of the three highest-pT jets are obtained. The plotted quantities are the $\Delta{R}$ between the 2nd and 3rd leading jets in the pT and pseudorapidity of the 3rd jet, and $\alpha = \mathrm{d}{\eta}/\mathrm{d}{\phi}$, where $\mathrm{d}{\eta}$ is the pseudorapidity difference between the 2nd and 3rd jets and $\mathrm{d}{\phi}$ is their azimuthal angle difference. Since the data has not been detector-corrected, a bin by bin correction is applied, based on the distributions with ideal and CDF simulation as given in the publication.

Measurement of transverse momentum and total cross section of $e^+e^-$ pairs in the Z-boson region of $66 \text{GeV}/c^2 < m_{ee} < 116 \text{GeV}/c^2$ from pbar-p collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.8$ TeV, with the Tevatron CDF detector. The $Z$ $p_\perp$, in a fully-factorised picture, is generated by the momentum balance against initial state radiation (ISR) and the primordial/intrinsic $p_\perp$ of the $Z$'s parent partons in the incoming hadrons. The $Z$ $p_\perp$ is important in generator tuning to fix the interplay of ISR and multi-parton interactions (MPI) in generating `underlying event' activity. This analysis is subject to ambiguities in the experimental Z pT definition, since the Rivet implementation reconstructs the Z momentum from the dilepton pair with finite cones for QED bremstrahlung summation, rather than non-portable direct use of the (sometimes absent) Z in the event record.

The original CDF underlying event analysis, based on decomposing each event into a transverse structure with ``toward'', ``away'' and ``transverse'' regions defined relative to the azimuthal direction of the leading jet in the event. Since the toward region is by definition dominated by the hard process, as is the away region by momentum balance in the matrix element, the transverse region is most sensitive to multi-parton interactions. The transverse regions occupy $|\phi| \in [60^\circ, 120^\circ]$ for $|\eta| < 1$. The $p_\perp$ ranges for the leading jet are divided experimentally into the `min-bias' sample from 0--20 GeV, and the `JET20' sample from 18--49 GeV.

  • QCD events at $\sqrt{s} = 630$ and 1800 GeV.

A study of $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1800$ and 630 GeV collected using a minimum bias trigger in which the data set is divided into two classes corresponding to `soft' and `hard' interactions. For each subsample, the analysis includes measurements of the multiplicity, transverse momentum (pT) spectra, and the average pT and event-by-event pT dispersion as a function of multiplicity. A comparison of results shows distinct differences in the behavior of the two samples as a function of the center of mass energy. The properties of the soft sample are invariant as a function of c.m. energy. It should be noticed that minimum bias tunings of PYTHIA made by ATLAS in early 2010, which used this among all other available data from CDF and from ATLAS at 900 GeV and 7 TeV, found an unavoidable tension between this data and the rest. Accordingly, this data was excluded from the fits. Whether this reflects a problem with this dataset or with the PYTHIA MPI model is a judgement for users to make!

Run details:
  • QCD events at $\sqrt{s} = 630$ \& 1800 GeV. Several $p_\perp^\text{min}$ cutoffs are probably required to fill the profile histograms, e.g. 0 (min bias), 30, 90, 150 GeV at 1800 GeV, and 0 (min bias), 20, 90, 150 GeV at 630 GeV.

This analysis studies the underlying event via transverse cones of $R = 0.7$ at 90 degrees in \phi relative to the leading (highest E) jet, at $\sqrt{s} = 630$ and 1800 GeV. This is similar to the 2001 CDF UE analysis, except that cones, rather than the whole central \eta range are used. The transverse cones are categorised as `TransMIN' and `TransMAX' on an event-by-event basis, to give greater sensitivity to the UE component. `Swiss Cheese' distributions, where cones around the leading $n$ jets are excluded from the distributions, are also included for $n = 2, 3$. This analysis is useful for constraining the energy evolution of the underlying event, since it performs the same analyses at two distinct CoM energies. WARNING! The pT plots are normalised to raw number of events. The min bias data have not been reproduced by MC, and are not recommended for tuning.

Measurement of the cross section for W boson production in association with jets in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. The analysis uses 320 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the CDF II detector. W bosons are identified in their $e\nu$ decay channel and jets are reconstructed using an $R < 0.4$ cone algorithm. For each $W + \geq$ n-jet sample (where n = 1--4) a measurement of d$\sigma({p}\bar{p} \rightarrow W + \geq$ n jet)/d$E_T(n^{th}$-jet) $\times$ BR($W \rightarrow{e}\nu$) is made, where d$E_T(n^{th}$-jet) is the Et of the n$^{th}$-highest Et jet above 20 GeV. A measurement of the total cross section, $\sigma(p\bar{p} \rightarrow W + \geq$ $n$-jet) $\times$ BR($W \rightarrow{e}\nu)$ with $E_T(n^{th}-jet) > 25$ GeV is also made. Both measurements are made for jets with $|\eta| < 2$ and for a limited region of the $W \rightarrow{e}\nu$ decay phase space; $|\eta^{e}| < 1.1$, $p_{T}^{e} > 20$ GeV, $p_{T}^{\nu} > 30$ GeV and $M_{T} > 20$ GeV. The cross sections are corrected for all detector effects and can be directly compared to particle level $W$ + jet(s) predictions. These measurements can be used to test and tune QCD predictions for the number of jets in and kinematics of $W$ + jets events.

This quantity is expressed as $\Psi(r/R) = \langle\frac{p_\perp(0 \rightarrow r)}{p_\perp(0 \rightarrow R)}\rangle$, where $p_\perp(0 \rightarrow r)$ is the scalar sum of the transverse momenta of all objects inside a sub-cone of radius $r$ around the jet axis. The integrated shapes are by definition normalized such that $\Psi(r/R =1) = 1$. The measurement is done in bins of jet pT in the range 52 to 300\;GeV/$c$. The jets have $|\eta| < 0.7$. The $b$-jets are expected to be broader than inclusive jets. Moreover, $b$-jets containing a single $b$-quark are expected to be narrower than those containing a $b \bar{b}$ pair from gluon splitting.

Measurement of the inclusive jet cross section in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV as a function of jet $E_\perp$, for $E_\perp >$ 62 GeV. The data is collected by the CDF II detector and has an integrated luminosity of 1.13 fb$^{-1}$. The measurement was made using the cone-based Midpoint jet clustering algorithm in rapidity bins within $|y|<2.1$. This measurement can be used to provide increased precision in PDFs at high parton momentum fraction $x$.

Measurement of the b-jet production cross section for events containing a $Z$ boson produced in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron. $Z$ bosons are selected in the electron and muon decay modes. Jets are considered with transverse energy $E_T>20$ GeV and pseudorapidity $|\eta|<1.5$. The ratio of the integrated $Z$ + b-jet cross section to the inclusive $Z$ production cross section is measured differentially in jet $E_T$, jet $\eta$, $Z$-boson transverse momentum, number of jets, and number of b-jets. The first two measurements have an entry for each b-jet in the event, the last three measurements have one entry per event.

Deepak Kar and Rick Field's measurement of the underlying event in Drell-Yan events. $Z -> ee$ and $Z -> \mu\mu$ events are selected using a $Z$ mass window cut between 70 and 110 GeV. ``Toward'', ``away'' and ``transverse'' regions are defined in the same way as in the original (2001) CDF underlying event analysis. The reconstructed $Z$ defines the $\phi$ direction of the toward region. The leptons are ignored after the $Z$ has been reconstructed. Thus the region most sensitive to the underlying event is the toward region (the recoil jet is boosted into the away region).

A measurement of the underlying activity in scattering processes with a hard scale in the several-GeV region is performed in proton-proton collisions at Energies of 0.9 and 7\;TeV, using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The production of charged particles with pseudorapidity |eta| < 2 and transverse momentum $p_\perp > 0.5$\;GeV/$c$ is studied in the azimuthal region transverse to that of the leading set of charged particles forming a track-jet. Various comparisons are made between the two different energies and also beteen two sets of cuts on p_\perp for leading track jet p_\perp-leading $> 3$\;GeV and pT-leading $> 20$\;GeV. The activity is studied using 5 types of plots. Two profile plots for the multiplicity of charged particles and the scalar sum of p_\perp. and three distributions for the two previous quantities as well as p_\perp for all the particles in the transverse region.

This is a measurement of the ratio of inclusive to exclusive dijet production as a function of the absolute distance in rapidity, $\Delta y$, between jets. The ratio of the Mueller-Navelet to exclusive dijet production is also measured. These measurements were performed with the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV for jets with $p_T > 35$ GeV and $|y| < 4.7$ taken from a mixture of two data samples, one of which containing dijets with moderate rapidity separation and the other containing dijets with large rapidity separation, with integrated luminosity of 33/nb and 5/pb respectively. The measured observables are corrected for detector effects.

  • Drell-Yan events with $Z/\gamma^* \to \mu\mu$. $m(\mu,\mu) > 20$ GeV

A measurement of the underlying event activity using Drell-Yan events using muonic final state. The production of charged particles with pseudorapidity $|\eta| < 2$ and transverse momentum $p_\perp > 0.5\,\text{GeV}/c$ is studied in towards, transverse and away region w.r.t. to the direction of di-muon system. The UE activity is measured in terms of of a particle density and an energy density. The particle density is computed as the average number of primary charged particles per unit pseudorapidity and per unit azimuth. The energy density is expressed in terms of the average of the scalar sum of the transverse momenta of primary charged particles per unit pseudorapidity and azimuth. The ratio of the energy and particle density is also reported in 3 regions. UE activity is studied as a function of invariant mass of muon pair ($M_{\mu\mu}$) by limiting the ISR contribution by requiring transverse momentum of muon pair $p_\perp(\mu\mu) < 5\,\text{GeV}/c$. The $p_\perp(\mu\mu)$ dependence is studied for the events having $M_{\mu\mu}$ in window of 81--101 GeV/$c$. The normalized charged particle multiplicity and $p_\perp$ spectrum of the charged particles in three regions also been reported for events having $M_{\mu\mu}$ in window of 81--101 GeV/$c$. Multiplicity and $p_\perp$ spectra in the transverse region are also reported, for events having $p_\perp(\mu\mu) < 5\,\text{GeV}/c$.

Measurements are presented of event shapes and azimuthal correlations in the inclusive production of a Z boson in association with jets in proton-proton collisions. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 5.0/fb, collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC at $\sqrt{s} = 7$\;TeV. This to test perturbative QCD predictions and evaluate a substantial background to most physics channels. Studies performed as a function of jet multiplicity for inclusive $Z$ boson production and for $Z$ bosons with transverse-momenta greater than 150\;GeV, are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo event generators that include leading-order multiparton matrix-element (with up to four hard partons in the final state) and next-to-leading-order simulations of Z + 1-jet events. The results are corrected for detector effects, and can therefore be used as input to improve models for describing these processes.

Rapidity distributions are presented for events containing either a $Z$ boson or a photon in association with a single jet in proton-proton collisions produced at the CERN LHC. The data, collected with the CMS detector at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 5.0/fb. The individual rapidity distributions of the boson and the jet are consistent within 5\% with expectations from perturbative QCD. However, QCD predictions for the sum and the difference in rapidities of the two final-state objects show significant discrepancies with CMS data. In particular, next-to-leading-order QCD calculations, and two Monte Carlo event generators using different methods to merge matrix-element partons with evolved parton showers, appear inconsistent with the data as well as with each other.

Characteristics of multi-particle production in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV are studied as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity ($N_{ch}$). The produced particles are separated into two classes: those belonging to jets and those belonging to the underlying event. Charged particles are measured with pseudorapidity $|\eta| < 2.4$ and transverse momentum $p_T > 0.25$ GeV. Jets are reconstructed from charged-particles only and required to have $\pt > 5$ GeV. The distributions of jet \pt, average \pt of charged particles belonging to the underlying event or to jets, jet rates, and jet shapes are presented as functions of $N_{ch}$.

The data used in the analysis were collected in 2010 with the CMS detector at the LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 36/pb. Events are selected that contain at least three jets and where the two jets with the largest transverse momentum exhibit a back-to-back topology. The measured angular correlation between the second- and third-leading jet is shown to be sensitive to color coherence effects, and is compared to the predictions of Monte Carlo models with various implementations of color coherence. None of the models describe the data satisfactorily.

Measurement of differential cross section for inclusive production of isolated photons in p pbar collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV with the D\O detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The photons span transverse momenta 23--300 GeV and have pseudorapidity $|\eta| < 0.9$. Isolated direct photons are probes of pQCD via the annihilation ($q \bar{q} -> \gamma g$) and quark-gluon Compton scattering ($q g -> \gamma q$) processes, the latter of which is also sensitive to the gluon PDF. The initial state radiation / resummation formalisms are sensitive to the resulting photon pT spectrum

The process $p \bar{p}$ -> photon + jet + X as studied by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 1.96\;\text{TeV}$. Photons are reconstructed in the central rapidity region $|y_\gamma| < 1.0$ with transverse momenta in the range 30--400\;GeV, while jets are reconstructed in either the central $|y_\text{jet}| < 0.8$ or forward $1.5 < |y_\text{jet}| < 2.5$ rapidity intervals with $p_\perp^\text{jet} > 15\;\text{GeV}$. The differential cross section $\mathrm{d}^3 \sigma / \mathrm{d}{p_\perp^\gamma} \mathrm{d}{y_\gamma} \mathrm{d}{y_\text{jet}}$ is measured as a function of $p_\perp^\gamma$ in four regions, differing by the relative orientations of the photon and the jet. MC predictions have trouble with simultaneously describing the measured normalization and $p_\perp^\gamma$ dependence of the cross section in any of the four measured regions.

Measurement of the electron charge asymmetry in $p \bar p \to W + X \to e \nu_e + X$ events at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The asymmetry is measured as a function of the electron transverse momentum and pseudorapidity in the interval (-3.2, 3.2). This data is sensitive to proton parton distribution functions due to the valence asymmetry in the incoming quarks which produce the W. Initial state radiation should also affect the pT distribution.

First measurements at a hadron collider of differential cross sections for $Z (\to \mu\mu)$+jet+X production in $\Delta\phi(Z, j)$, $|\Delta y(Z, j)|$ and $|y_\mathrm{boost}(Z, j)|$. Vector boson production in association with jets is an excellent probe of QCD and constitutes the main background to many small cross section processes, such as associated Higgs production. These measurements are crucial tests of the predictions of perturbative QCD and current event generators, which have varied success in describing the data. Using these measurements as inputs in tuning event generators will increase the experimental sensitivity to rare signals.

Direct photon pair production cross sections are measured using 4.2 fb$^{-1}$ of data. They are binned in diphoton mass, the transverse momentum of the diphoton system, the azimuthal angle between the photons, and the polar scattering angle of the photons. Also available are double differential cross sections considering the last three kinematic variables in three diphoton mass bins. Note, the numbers in version 1 of the arXiv preprint were missing the dM normalisation in the double differential cross sections. This has been reported to and fixed by the authors in v2 and the journal submission. HepData as well as the Rivet analysis have also been updated.

Global properties of the hadronic final state in deep inelastic scattering events at HERA are investigated. The data are corrected for detector effects. Energy flows in both the laboratory frame and the hadronic centre of mass system, and energy-energy correlations in the laboratory frame are presented. Historically, the Ariadne colour dipole model provided the only satisfactory description of this data, hence making it a useful 'target' analysis for MC shower models.

DIS events at low $x$ may be sensitive to new QCD dynamics such as BFKL or CCFM radiation. In particular, BFKL is expected to produce more radiation at high transverse energy in the rapidity span between the proton remnant and the struck quark jet. Performing a transverse energy sum in bins of $x$ and $\eta$ may distinguish between DGLAP and BFKL evolution.

Measurements of transverse energy flow for neutral current deep- inelastic scattering events produced in positron-proton collisions at HERA. The kinematic range covers squared momentum transfers $Q^2$ from 3.2 to 2200 GeV$^2$; the Bjorken scaling variable $x$ from $8 \times 10^{-5}$ to 0.11 and the hadronic mass $W$ from 66 to 233 GeV. The transverse energy flow is measured in the hadronic centre of mass frame and is studied as a function of $Q^2$, $x$, $W$ and pseudorapidity. The behaviour of the mean transverse energy in the central pseudorapidity region and an interval corresponding to the photon fragmentation region are analysed as a function of $Q^2$ and $W$. This analysis is useful for exploring the effect of photon PDFs and for tuning models of parton evolution and treatment of fragmentation and the proton remnant in DIS.

The paper presents the cross-section and double differential cross-section measurement for prompt $K^0_S$ production in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 0.9\;TeV$. The data were taken during the LHCb run in December 2009 and cover a transversal momentum range from 0 to 1.6 GeV/c. The differential production cross-section is calculated for three rapidity windows $2.5 < y < 3.0$, $3.0 < y < 3.5$ and $3.5 < y < 4.0$ as well as the whole rapidity domain $2.5 < y < 4.0$.

This paper presents the production ratios for $\bar{\Lambda}/\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}/K_{s}^{0}$ measured by LHCb detector in 2010 at $\sqrt{s} = 0.9$ TeV and 7 TeV as functions of the transverse momentum $p_\perp$ and the rapidity $y$ in the ranges $0.15 < p_\perp < 2.50\;\text{GeV}/c$ and $2.0 < y < 4.5$, respectively. The results for the two energies are merged and represented as a function of rapidity loss $\Delta y = y_{\mathrm{beam}} - y$.

  • Minimum bias events from $pp$ collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV.

The energy flow created in $pp$ collisions at 7 TeV within the fiducial pseudorapidity range of the LHCb detector ($1.9 < \eta < 4.9$) is measured for inclusive minimum bias interactions, hard scattering processes and events with enhanced or suppressed diffractive contribution. Plots for these four event classes are shown separately for all and charged only final state particles, respectively. The total energy flow is measured by combining the charged energy flow and a data-constrained MC estimate of the neutral component. For the two highest eta bins the data-constrained measurements of the neutral energy were extrapolated from the more central region as the LHCb electromagnetic calorimeter has no detection coverage in that phase space domain.

  • Minimum bias QCD events, proton--proton interactions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV.

Measurements of differential production cross-sections with respect to transverse momentum, $d \sigma(H_c + \mathrm{c.c.}) / d p_T$, for charm hadron species $H_c \in \{ D^0, D^+, D^\ast(2010)^+, D_s^+, \Lambda_c^+ \}$ in proton--proton collisions at center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}= 7$ TeV. The differential cross-sections are measured in bins of hadron transverse momentum ($p_T$) and rapidity ($y$) with respect to the beam axis in the region $0 < p_T < 8$ GeV/$c$ and $2.0 < y < 4.5$, where $p_T$ and $y$ are measured in the proton--proton CM frame. In this analysis code, it is assumed that the event coordinate system is in the proton--proton CM frame with the $z$-axis corresponding to the proton--proton collision axis (as usual). Contributions of charm hadrons from the decays of $b$-hadrons and other particles with comparably large mean lifetimes have been removed in the measurement. In this analysis code, this is implemented by counting only charm hadrons that do not have an ancestor that contains a $b$ quark.

The $K^{*0}$ fragmentation function has been measured in hadronic $Z^0$ decays. In addition the helicity density matrix elements for inclusive $K^*(892)^0$ mesons from hadronic $Z^0$ decays have been measured over the full range of $K^{*0}$ momentum using data taken with the OPAL experiment at LEP. Only the fragmentation function measurement is currently implemented.

UE analysis similar to Rick Field's leading jet analysis. SIScone with radius/resolution parameter R=0.7 is used. Particles with $pT > 0.2 \text{GeV}$ and $|\eta| < 1$ are included in the analysis. All particles are assumed to have zero mass. Only jets with neutral energy $< 0.7$ are included. For the transMIN and transMAX $\Delta(\phi)$ is between $\pi/3$ and $2\pi/3$, and $\Delta(\eta) < 2.0$. For the jet region the area of the jet is used for the normalization, i.e. the scaling factor is $\pi R^2$ and not $\mathrm{d}\phi\mathrm{d}\eta$ (this is different from what Rick Field does!). The tracking efficiency is $\sim 0.8$, but that is an approximation, as below $pT \sim 0.6 \text{GeV}$ it is falling quite steeply.

Data on two-particle pseudorapidity and multiplicity correlations of charged particles for non single-diffractive $p\bar{p}$ collisions at c.m. energies of 200, 546 and 900 GeV. Pseudorapidity correlations are interpreted in terms of a cluster model, which has been motivated by this and other experiments, require on average about two charged particles per cluster. The decay width of the clusters in pseudorapidity is approximately independent of multiplicity and of c.m. energy. The investigations of correlations in terms of pseudorapidity gaps confirm the picture of cluster production. The strength of forward--backward multiplicity correlations increases linearly with ins and depends strongly on position and size of the pseudorapidity gap separating the forward and backward interval. All our correlation studies can be understood in terms of a cluster model in which clusters contain on average about two charged particles, i.e. are of similar magnitude to earlier estimates from the ISR.

  • 820 GeV protons colliding with 27.5 GeV positrons; Direct and resolved photoproduction of dijets; Leading jet $pT > 14$ GeV, second jet $pT > 11$ GeV; Jet pseudorapidity $-1 < |\eta| < 2.4$

ZEUS photoproduction of jets from proton--positron collisions at beam energies of 820 GeV on 27.5 GeV. Photoproduction can either be direct, in which case the photon interacts directly with the parton, or resolved, in which case the photon acts as a source of quarks and gluons. A photon-proton centre of mass energy of between 134 GeV and 227 GeV is probed, with values of $x_P$, the fractional momentum of the partons inside the proton, predominantly in the region between 0.01 and 0.1. The fractional momentum of the partons from the photon, $x\gamma$, is in the region 0.1 to 1. Jets are reconstructed in the range $-1 < |\eta| < 2.4$ using the $k_\perp$ algorithm with an $R$ parameter of 1.0. The minimum pT of the leading jet should be greater than 14 GeV, and at least one other jet must have $pT > 11$ GeV.
