A Study of the Azimuthal Decorrelation between Jets with Large Rapidity Separation
- Korea U.
We present the first experimental measurement of jet-jet azimuthal correlation as a function of the rapidity interval between two jets. The data were accumulated using the D0 detector during the 1992{93 collider run of the Fermilab Tevatron at $$\sqrt{s}$$ = 1.8 TeV. These results are compared to next{to{leading order (NLO) QCD predictions and to two leading{log approximations (LLA) where the leading{log terms are resummed to all orders in $$\alpha_s$$. The final state jets as predicted by NLO QCD are more correlated azimuthally than the data. The parton shower LLA Monte Carlo HERWIG describes the data well and the analytical LLA prediction based on BFKL resummation is found to be less correlated than the data.
