Two-particle momentum correlations in jets at the Tevatron

ORAL

Abstract

Presented are the measurements of two-particle momentum correlations in jets produced in p-pbar collisions at center of mass frame energy 1.96 TeV. Studies were performed for charged particles within a restricted opening angle of 0.5 rad around the jet axis and for dijet events with masses ranging from about 60 to 600 GeV. Comparison of the experimental results to the theoretical predictions obtained for partons within the framework of the resummed perturbative QCD (Next-to-leading Log Approximation) shows that the parton momentum correlations do survive the hadronization stage of jet fragmentation, thus giving further support to the hypothesis of Local Parton-Hadron Duality.
