Measurement of transverse energy–energy correlations in multi-jet events in pp collisions at √ = 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector and determination of the strong coupling constant αs(mz) Aad, G. Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio Atlas Collaboration Measurement Jet events Collisions Atlas detector High transverse momentum jets produced in pp collisions at a centre of mass energy of 7 TeV are used to measure the transverse energy–energy correlation function and its associated azimuthal asymmetry. The data were recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in the year 2011 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 158 pb−1. The selection criteria demand the average transverse momentum of the two leading jets in an event to be larger than 250 GeV. The data at detector level are well described by Monte Carlo event generators. They are unfolded to the particle level and compared with theoretical calculations at next-to-leading-order accuracy. The agreement between data and theory is good and provides a precision test of perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics at large momentum transfers. 2018-02-20T12:10:49Z 2018-02-20T12:10:49Z 2015-11-12 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Atlas Collaboration.
