چکیده

Recent work in inter-jet energy flow has identified a class of leading logarithms previously not considered in the literature. These so-called non-global logarithms have been shown to have significant numerical impact on gaps-between-jets calculations at the energies of current particle colliders. Here we calculate, at fixed order and to all orders, the effect of applying clustering to the gluonic final state responsible for these logarithms for a trivial colour flow 2 jet system. Such a clustering algorithm has already been used for experimental measurements at HERA. We find that the impact of the non-global logarithms is reduced, but not removed, when clustering is demanded, a result which is of considerable interest for energy flow observable calculations.

Energy Flow between Jets in the K T Algorithm

We consider the impact of the kt algorithm on energy flow into gaps between jets in any QCD hard process. While we confirm the observation that the kt clustering procedure considerably reduces the impact of non-global logarithms, we unearth yet new sources of logarithmic enhancement, that stem from using the kt algorithm to define the final state. We comment on the nature of the logarithms we f...

The resummation of inter-jet energy flow for gaps-between-jets processes at HERA

We calculate resummed perturbative predictions for gaps-between-jets processes and compare to HERA data. Our calculation of this non-global observable needs to include the effects of primary gluon emission (global logarithms) and secondary gluon emission (non-global logarithms) to be correct at the leading logarithm (LL) level. We include primary emission by calculating anomalous dimension matr...

Resummation of non-global logarithms at finite Nc

In the context of inter-jet energy flow, we present the first quantitative result of the resummation of non-global logarithms at finiteNc. This is achieved by refining Weigert’s approach in which the problem is reduced to the simulation of associated Langevin dynamics in the space of Wilson lines. We find that, in e+e− annihilation, the exact result is rather close to the result previously obta...

The anti - k t jet clustering algorithm

The kt and Cambridge/Aachen inclusive jet finding algorithms for hadron-hadron collisions can be seen as belonging to a broader class of sequential recombination jet algorithms, parametrised by the power of the energy scale in the distance measure. We examine some properties of a new member of this class, for which the power is negative. This “anti-kt” algorithm essentially behaves like an idea...

Dispelling the N 3 myth for the k t jet - finder Matteo Cacciari and Gavin

At high-energy colliders, jets of hadrons are the observable counterparts of the perturbative concepts of quarks and gluons. Good procedures for identifying jets are central to experimental analyses and comparisons with theory. The kt family of successive recombination jet finders has been widely advocated because of its conceptual simplicity and flexibility and its unique ability to approximat...
