1 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20061 2 - Collider Physics 2 - Collider Physics 2.1 Phase space and rapidity - the “plateau” 2.2 Source Functions - protons to partons 2.3 Pointlike scattering of partons 2.4 2-->2 formation kinematics 2.5 2--1 Drell-Yan processes 2.6 2-->2 decay kinematics - “back to back” 2.7 Jet Fragmentation

2 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20062 Kinematics - Rapidity One Body Phase Space NR Relativistic Rapidity If transverse momentum is limited by dynamics, expect a uniform distribution in y Kinematically allowed range in y of a proton with P T =0

3 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20063 Rapidity “Plateau” Monte Carlo results are homebuilt or COMPHEP - running under Windows or Linux Region around y=0 (90 degrees) has a “plateau” with width  y ~ 6 for LHC LHC

4 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20064 Rapidity Plateau - Jets For ET small w.r.t sqrt(s) there is a rapidity plateau at the Tevatron with  y ~ 2 at E T < 100 GeV.

5 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20065 Parton and Hadron Dynamics For large E T, or short distances, the impulse approximation means that quantum effects can be ignored. The proton can be treated as containing partons defined by distribution functions. f(x) is the probability distribution to find a parton with momentum fraction x. Proceed left to right

6 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20066 The “Underlying Event” The residual fragments of the pp resolve into soft - P T ~ 0.5 GeV pions with a density ~ 5 per unit of rapidity (Tevatron) and equal numbers of  +  o  -. At higher P T, “minijets” become a prominent feature s dependence for P T < 5 GeV is small

7 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20067 COMPHEP - Minijets p-p at 14 TeV, subprocess g+g->g+g, cut on Ptg> 5 GeV. Note scale is mb/GeV

8 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20068 Minijets - Power Law? The very low P T fragments change to “minijets” - jets at “low” P T which have mb cross sections at ~ 10 GeV. The boundary between “soft, log(s)” physics and “hard scattering” is not very definite. Note log-log, which is not available in COMPHEP – must export the histogram pp(g+g) -> g + g

9 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 20069 The Distribution Functions Suppose there was very weak binding of the u+u+d “valence” quarks in the proton. But quarks are bound,. Since the quark masses are small the system is relativistic - “valence” quarks can radiate gluons ==> xg(x) ~ constant. Gluons can “decay” into pairs ==> xs(x) ~ constant. The distribution is, in principle, calcuable but not perturbatively. In practice measure in lepton-proton scattering. x ~ 1/3, f(x) is a delta function

10 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200610 Radiation - Soft and Collinear P (1-z)P ,k The amplitude for radiation of a gluon of momentum fraction z goes as ~ 1/z. The radiated gluon will be ~ collinear -  ~ k ==>  ~ 0. Thus, radiated objects are soft and collinear. Cherenkov relation

11 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200611 COMPHEP, e+t->e+t+A Use heavy quark as a source of photons – needed to balance E,P. See strong forward (electron- photon) peak.

12 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200612 Parton Distribution Functions “valence” “sea” gluons In the proton, u and d quarks have largest probability at large x. Gluons and “sea” anti- quarks have large probability at low x. Gluons carry ~ 1/2 the proton momentum. Distributions depend on distance scale (ignore).

13 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200613 Proton – Parton Density Functions g dominates for x < 0.2 At large x, x > 0.2, u dominates over d and g. “sea” dominates for x < 0.03 over valence. Points are simple xg(x) parametrization.

14 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200614 2-->2 Formation Kinematics E.g. for top quark pairs at the Tevatron, M ~ 2M t ~ 350 GeV. ~  ~350/1800 ~ 0.2 Top pairs produced by quarks. x1x1 x2x2

15 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200615 Linux COMPHEP g + g->g + g with Pt of final state gluons > 50 GeV at 14 TeV p-p n.b. To delete diagrams use d, o to turn them back on one at a time Cross section is 0.013 mb (very large) Write out full events – but no fragmentation. COMPHEP does not know about hadrons.

16 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200616 gg -> gg in Linux COMPHEP Note the kinematic boundary, where ~ 0.007 is the y=0 value for x1=x2 for M = 100, C.M. = 14000.

17 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200617 CDF Data – DY Electron Pairs DY Plateau x1,x2 at Z mass ~ 0.045

18 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200618 The Fundamental Scattering Amplitude

19 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200619 Pointlike Parton Cross Sections Pointlike partons have Rutherford like behavior  ~  (  1  2 )|A| 2 /s s,t,u are Mandelstam variables. |A| 2 ~ 1 at y=0.

20 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200620 Hadronic Cross Sections To form the system need x 1 from A and x 2 from B picked out of probability distributions with the joint probability P A P B to form a system of mass M moving with momentum fraction x. C is a color factor (later). The cross section is  ~ (d  /dy) y=0  y. The value of  y varies only slowly with mass ~ ln(1/M)

21 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200621 2-->2 and 2-->1 Cross Sections “scaling” behavior – depends only on  and not M and s separately

22 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200622 DY Formation: 2 --> 1 At a fixed resonant mass, expect rapid rise from “threshold” -  ~ (1-M/  s) 2a - then slow “saturation”.  W ~ 30 nb at the LHC

23 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200623 DY Z Production – F/B Asymmetry CDF – Run I The Z couples to L and R quarks differently -> parity violating asymmetry in the photon-Z interference.

24 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200624 F/B Asymmetry Coupling of leptons and quarks to Z specified in SM by gauge principle. Coupling to L and R fermions differs => P violation ~ R-L coupling. Predict asymmetry, A ~ I 3 /Q. Thus, A for muons = 1, that for u quarks is 3/2, while for d quarks it is 3.

25 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200625 COMPHEPCOMPHEP At 500 GeV the asymmetry is large and positive – here not p-p but u-U

26 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200626 COMPHEP - Assym Option in “Simpson” to get F/B asymmetry in COMPHEP

27 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200627 DY Formation of Charmonium Cross section =  ~  2  (2J+1)/M 3 for W, width ~ 2 GeV,  = 47 nb. For charmonium, width is 0.000087 GeV, and estimate cross section in gg formation as 34 nb. The P T arises from ISR and intrinsic parton transverse momentum and is only a few GeV, on average. Use for lepton momentum scale and resolution. g g 

28 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200628 Charmonium Calibration Cross section in |y|<1.5 is ~ 800 nb at the LHC. Lepton calibration – mass scale, width?

29 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200629 Upsilon Calibration Cross section * BR about 2 nb at the LHC. Resolve the spectral peaks? Mass scale correct?

30 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200630 ZZ Production vs CM Energy VV production also has a steep rise near threshold. There is a 20 fold rise from the Tevatron to the LHC. Measure VVV coupling. ZZ has ~ 2 pb cross section at LHC. Not much gain in using anti-protons once the energy is high enough that the gluons or “sea” quarks dominate.

31 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200631 WWZ – Quartic Coupling Not accessible at Tevatron. Test quartic couplings at the LHC.

32 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200632 Jet-Jet Mass, 2 --> 2 Expect 1/M 3 behavior at low mass. When M/  s becomes substantial, the source effects will be large. E.g. for M = 400 GeV, at the Tevatron, M/  s=0.2, and (1-M/  s) 12 is ~ 0.07.

33 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200633 Jets - 2 TeV- |y|<2 E T ~ M/2 for large scattering angles. 1/M 3 [1-M/  s] 12 behavior

34 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200634 COMPHEP Linux

35 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200635 Scaling ? Tevatron runs at 630 and 1800 GeV in Run I. Test of scaling in inclusive jet production. Expect a function of only in lowest order.

36 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200636 Direct Photon Production Expect a similar spectrum with a rate down by ratio of coupling constants and differences in u and g source functions.  /  s ~14 u/g~6 at x~0.

37 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200637 D0 Single Photon Process dominated by q + g – a la Compton scattering. COMPHEP – 2 TeV p-p

38 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200638 2--> 2 Kinematics - “Decays” x 1 x 2 x,y,M y 3, y 4 y*,  * Formation System Decay CM Decay The measured values of y 3, y 4 and E T allow one to solve for the initial state x 1 and x 2 and the c.m. decay angle.

39 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200639 COMPHEP - Linux g+g-> g+ g, in pp at 14 TeV with cut of Pt of jets of 50 GeV. See a plateau for jets and the t channel peaking. Want to establish jet cross section, angular distributions and to look at jet “balance” – missing Et distribution in dijet events. MET angle ~ jet azimuthal angle and no non-Gaussian tails.

40 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200640 Parton-->Hadron Fragmentation For light hadrons (pions) as hadronization products, assume k T is limited (scale ~ . The fragmentation function, D(z) has a radiative form, leading to a jet multiplicity which is logarithmic in E T Plateau widens with s, ~ln(s)

41 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200641 CDF Analysis – Jet Multiplicity Different Cone radii Jet cluster multiplicity within a cone increases with dijet mass as ~ ln(M).

42 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200642 Jet Transverse Shape There is a “leading fragment” core localized at small R w.r.t. the jet axis - 40% of the energy for R< 0.1. 80% is contained in R < 0.4 cone

43 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200643 Jet Shape - Monte Carlo Simple model with zD(z) ~ (1-z) 5 and ~ 0.72 GeV. “Leading fragment” with ~ 0.24. On average the leading fragment takes ~ 1/4 of the jet momentum. Fragmentation is soft and non-perturbative.

44 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200644 Low Mass LHC Rates For small x and strong production, the cross section is a large fraction of the inelastic cross section. Therefore, the probability to find a “small Pt “minijet” in an LHC crossing is not small.

45 FNAL Academic Lectures – May, 200645 V V Production - W +  The angular distribution at the parton level has a zero. The SM prediction could be confirmed with a large enough event sample. – pp at 2 TeV with Pt > 10 GeV, 0.6 pb Asymmetry somewhat washed out by the contribution of sea anti-quarks in the p and sea quarks in the anti-proton.
