through each other and fall apart (i.e.
no hard scattering). The outgoing
particles continue in roughly the same

! What happens when a proton and an
antiproton collide with a center-ofmass energy of 2 TeV?
! Most of the time the proton and

and fall apart (i.e. no hard scattering).
The outgoing particles continue in
roughly the same direction as initial
proton and antiproton.

to many collider observables.

! The underlying event in a hard scattering process has a “hard” component (particles
that arise from initial & final-state radiation and from the outgoing hard scattered
partons) and a “soft” component (beam-beam remnants).
! However the “soft” component is color connected to the “hard” component so this
separation is (at best) an approximation.

Feynman Festival

! For ISAJET (no color flow) the “soft” and “hard” components
are completely independent and the model for the beam-beam
remnant component is the same as for min-bias (“cut
pomeron”) but with a larger <PT>.
! HERWIG breaks the color connection with a soft q-qbar pair
and then models the beam-beam remnant component the same
as HERWIG min-bias (cluster decay).

Underlying Event
! The underlying event in a hard scattering
process is a complicated and not very well
understood object. It is an interesting
region since it probes the interface between
perturbative and non-perturbative physics.
! There are two CDF analyses which
quantitatively study the underlying event
and compare with the QCD Monte-Carlo
models.
! It is important to model this region well
since it is an unavoidable background to all
collider observables. Also, we need a good
model of min-bias (zero-bias) collisions.

! The probability that a hard scattering events also contains a semi-hard multiple parton
interaction can be varied but adjusting the cut-off for the MPI.
! One can also adjust whether the probability of a MPI depends on the PT of the hard
scattering, PT(hard) (constant cross section or varying with impact parameter).
! One can adjust the color connections and flavor of the MPI (singlet or nearest neighbor,
q-qbar or glue-glue).

Collider Phenomenology
From 7 GeV/c πo’s to 400 GeV “Jets”
Rick Field (Feynman Festival):
“At the time of this writing,
there is still no sharp
quantitative test of QCD.
We believe it is the correct
theory of strong interactions
QCD (2002)
becauseNLO
it qualitatively
describes
400
GeV
“jets”
an enormous variety and amount
of data over many decades of Q2.”
Feynman played an enormous role in our
understanding of hadron-hadron collisions
and his influence is still being felt!
