Determination of the Strong Coupling Constant and Multijet Cross Section Ratio Measurements
Conference

OSTI ID:1023977
Concepts and results of determinations of the strong coupling in hadron collisions are discussed. A recent {alpha}{sub s} result from the inclusive jet cross section in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.96 TeV is presented which is based on perturbative QCD calculations beyond next-to-leading order. Emphasis is put on the consistency of the conceptual approach. Conceptual limitations in the approach of extracting as from cross section data are discussed and how these can be avoided by using observables that are defined as ratios of cross sections. For one such observable, the multijet cross section ratio R{sub 3/2}, preliminary results are presented.
