Properties of Jets in Z Boson Events from 1.8 TeV pp Collisions
Abstract
We present a study of events with Z bosons and hadronic jets produced in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.8 TeV. The data consist of 6708 Z e+e- decays from 106 pb-1 of integrated luminosity collected using the CDF detector at the Tevatron Collider. The Z + n jet cross sections and jet production properties have been measured for n = 1 to 4. The data compare well to predictions of leading order QCD matrix element calculations with added gluon radiation and simulated parton fragmentation.
