Measurement of the s dependence of jet production at the CERN pp collider
Physics Letters B 160:4-5 (1985) 349-356
Abstract:
The production of very large transverse momentum (pT) hadron jets has been measured in the UA2 experiment at the CERN pp Collider for s=630 GeV. The inclusive jet production cross sections exhibit a pT-dependent increase with respect to the s=546 GeV data from previous Collider runs. This increase can be described both by QCD calculations and by approximate xT=2pT/√s scaling. No significant deviation of the data from QCD predictions is observed at very large pT, placing a lower limit on the characteristic scale Λc of a hypothetical superstrong contact interaction responsible for the binding of preons in the quark (Λc>370 GeV at 95% CL). © 1985.Inclusive particle production in the transverse momentum range between 0.25 and 40 GeV/c at the CERN collider

Physics Letters B 154:4 (1985) 338-346
Abstract:
From an integrated luminosity of ∫Ldt = 116 nb-1, 10events are found which contain an electron pair of mass in the range 12 < Mee < 26 GeV c2 and electron transverse momenta pTe > 5 GeV c. THe sample are described, as well as some featruyres of the The production characteristics of this sample are described, as well as some features of the estimated to be 2.2±0.6 events. The production characteristics of this sample are described, as well as some features of the associated event topology. Comparisons are made with the expectations for such electron pair production from the Drell-Yan mechanism and from the semi-leptonic decay of heavy flavours. © 1985.Measurement of jet fragmentation properties at the CERN pp Collider

Abstract:
Fragmentation properties of a sample of two-jet events measured by the UA2 detector at the CERN pp Collider are described. The energy flow is compared with different model predictions. The charged particle multiplicity in jets is found to exceed extrapolations from lower energy e+e- jet data. © 1984.Measurement of jet production properties at the CERN pp Collider
