Connecting the underlying event with jet properties in pp collisions at s = 7 TeV with the ALICE experiment
Abstract
A preliminary study of the fragmentation properties of charged particle jets as a function of the Underlying Multiplicity (UM) is presented. The UM is defined such that it can be related to the global soft event characteristics by excluding the contribution due to jet fragmentation. The measurement of jet properties as a function of the UM might be connected to the impact parameter dependence of the transverse nucleon structure as described via Generalized Parton Distributions. The results from the studies are compared to Monte Carlo (MC) models.
