Study Of Jet Transverse Momentum And Jet Rapidity Dependence Of Dijet Azimuthal Decorrelations With The Dø Detector, Kiran Chakravarthula
Doctoral Dissertations
In a collision experiment involving highly energetic particles such as hadrons, processes at high momentum transfers can provide information useful for many studies involving Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). One way of analyzing these interactions is through angular distributions. In hadron-hadron collisions, the angular distribution between the two leading jets with the largest transverse momentum (pT) is affected by the production of additional jets. While soft radiation causes small differences in the azimuthal angular distribution of the two leading jets produced in a collision event, additional hard jets produced in the event have more pronounced influence on the distribution of …

Doctoral Dissertations
The transverse momentum (pT) dependence of azimuthal decorrelations in dijet events is studied with data collected, at an integrated luminosity of [special characters omitted] dt = (36 ± 4) pb−1, from collisions between protons at a center of mass energy of [special characters omitted] = 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The results of the analysis of jets in a central rapidity of |y| < 0.8 and pT in the range 60 GeV < pT < 1200 GeV are presented. A new observable RΔ&phis;, defined as the fraction of the total dijet cross section corresponding to a particular range of …
Event Shapes In Proton-Proton Collisions At Center Of Mass Energy = 1.96 Tev, Scott Atkins
Event Shapes In Proton-Proton Collisions At Center Of Mass Energy = 1.96 Tev, Scott Atkins
Doctoral Dissertations
This dissertation presents the analysis of nine different event shapes measured in high energy pp¯ collisions. An event shape can be defined as an event-based quantity that measures how the final energies are distributed in the final event. This analysis will test strong interactions as described by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), through their implementation in different Monte Carlo-based models. Each of the event shapes provides information about the flow of energy in QCD events and about the hadronic final states that occur in pp¯ particle collisions, thus allowing the study of the dynamics of QCD multijet events. Any deviation of an …
