Forward-backward correlations and charged-particle azimuthal distributions in $pp$ interactions using the ATLAS detector
2012
Using inelastic proton-proton interactions at sqrt(s) = 900 GeV and 7 TeV, recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC, measurements have been made of the correlations between forward and backward charged-particle multiplicities and, for the first time, between forward and backward charged-particle summed transverse momentum. In addition, jet-like structure in the events is studied by means of azimuthal distributions of charged particles relative to the charged particle with highest transverse momentum in a selected kinematic region of the event. The results are compared with predictions from tunes of the PYTHIA and HERWIG++ Monte Carlo generators, which in most cases are found to provide a r…
Simultaneous measurement of forward-backward asymmetry and top polarization in dilepton final states fromtt¯production at the Tevatron
2015
We present a simultaneous measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry and the top-quark polarization in t (t) over bar production in dilepton final states using 9.7 fb(-1) of proton-antiproton collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV with the D0 detector. To reconstruct the distributions of kinematic observables we employ a matrix element technique that calculates the likelihood of the possible t (t) over bar kinematic configurations. After accounting for the presence of background events and for calibration effects, we obtain a forward-backward asymmetry of A(t (t) over bar) = (15.0 +/- 6.4(stat) +/- 4.9(syst)) % and a top-quark polarization times spin analyzing power in the beam basis of kappa P…
Measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry ofΛandΛ¯production inpp¯collisions
2016
We study $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ production asymmetries in $p \bar{p} \rightarrow \Lambda (\bar{\Lambda}) X$, $p \bar{p} \rightarrow J/\psi \Lambda (\bar{\Lambda}) X$, and $p \bar{p} \rightarrow \mu^\pm \Lambda (\bar{\Lambda}) X$ events recorded by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at $\sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV. We find an excess of $\Lambda$'s ($\bar{\Lambda}$'s) produced in the proton (antiproton) direction. This forward-backward asymmetry is measured as a function of rapidity. We confirm that the $\bar{\Lambda}/\Lambda$ production ratio, measured by several experiments with various targets and a wide range of energies, is a universal function of "rapidity loss", i.e., th…
The forward-backward asymmetry at NNLO revisited
2006
I reconsider the forward-backward asymmetry for flavoured quarks in electron-positron annihilation. I suggest an infrared-safe definition of this observable, such that the asymmetry may be computed in perturbative QCD with massless quarks. With this definition, the first and second order QCD corrections are computed.
Combined Forward-Backward Asymmetry Measurements in Top-Antitop Quark Production at the Tevatron
2018
The CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron have measured the asymmetry between yields of forward- and backward-produced top and antitop quarks based on their rapidity difference and the asymmetry between their decay leptons. These measurements use the full data sets collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √s=1.96 TeV. We report the results of combinations of the inclusive asymmetries and their differential dependencies on relevant kinematic quantities. The combined inclusive asymmetry is At¯tFB=0.128±0.025. The combined inclusive and differential asymmetries are consistent with recent standard model predictions.
