The “Underlying Event” in
Hard Scattering Processes
 What happens when a proton and an
antiproton collide with a center-ofmass energy of 2 TeV?
 Most of the time the proton and
antiproton ooze through each other
and fall apart (i.e. no hard scattering).
The outgoing particles continue in
roughly the same direction as initial
proton and antiproton.

Underlying Event
 Occasionally there will be a “hard”
parton-parton collision resulting in large
transverse momentum outgoing partons.
 The “underlying event” is everything
except the two outgoing hard scattered
“jets”. It is an unavoidable background
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.
Min-Bias?

Cambridge Workshop
July 20, 2002
 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).
 Also, one can adjust how the probability of a MPI depends on PT(hard) (single or double
Gaussian matter distribution).

Sum the PT of charged particles in two cones of radius 0.7 at the same h as the leading jet but with
|F| = 90o. Plot the cone with the maximum and minimum PTsum versus the ET of the leading
(calorimeter) jet.
Note that PYTHIA 6.115 is tuned at 630 GeV with PT0 = 1.4 GeV and at 1,800 GeV with PT0 = 2.0
GeV. With PYTHIA 6.206 (defaults) PT0 would increase from 1.4 GeV at 630 GeV to 1.65 GeV at
1,800 GeV (18% increase). Perhaps e = PARP(90) should be changed from 0.16 (default) to 0.34?
HERWIG looks good!

very soft collisions to very hard collisions.
ISAJET (with independent fragmentation) produces too many (soft) particles in the
underlying event with the wrong dependence on PT(jet#1). HERWIG and PYTHIA
modify the leading-log picture to include “color coherence effects” which leads to “angle
ordering” within the parton shower and do a better job describing the underlying event.
Both ISAJET and HERWIG have the too steep of a PT dependence of the beam-beam
remnant component of the underlying event and hence do not have enough beam-beam
remnants with PT > 0.5 GeV/c.
PYTHIA (with multiple parton interactions) does the best job in describing the
underlying event.
Perhaps the multiple parton interaction approach is correct or maybe we simply need to
improve the way the Monte-Carlo models handle the beam-beam remnants (or both!).

cannot be explained by initial-state radiation.
Multiple parton interactions gives a natural way of explaining the increased activity in the
underlying event in a hard scattering. A hard scattering is more likely to occur when the
hard cores overlap and this is also when the probability of a multiple parton interaction is
greatest. For a soft grazing collision the probability of a multiple parton interaction is
small.
PYTHIA (with varying impact parameter) describes the underlying event data fairly well
and will also fit the min-bias data (must use MSTP(82)=4 “double Gaussian” and tune the
parameters). More work is needed on the energy dependence.
A. Moraes, I. Dawson, and C. Buttar (University of Sheffield) have also been working on
tuning PYTHIA to fit the underlying event using the CDF data with the goal of
extrapolating to the LHC.
