Jet production

An other proposed reaction is the study of inclusive single and di-jet production. The cross sections of these processes are large. These measurements, however, are difficult to analyze, since different partonic sub-processes contribute, like the GG fusion, qG scattering and tex2html_wrap_inline2468 annihilation and the sensitivity on the gluon polarization is not yet well established. Typically the GG process dominates at lower tex2html_wrap_inline2424 's and covers the low tex2html_wrap_inline2240 region ( tex2html_wrap_inline2476 ). Also for this process the detection of both jets is important to calculate approximately the kinematics of the incoming partons and a large acceptance is then required. A sensitivity on tex2html_wrap_inline2260 from the study of di-jet events 3 times better than for the prompt- tex2html_wrap_inline2248 plus away-side jet production has been reported [4]. However, to our knowledge, no detailed study for this process, including for instance systematic effects, as extensive as the one for the prompt- tex2html_wrap_inline2248 plus away-side jet, has been yet presented.
