Properties of Jets in W Boson Events from 1.8 TeV pbar p Collisions
Abstract
We present a study of events with W bosons and hadronic jets produced in pbar p collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.8 TeV. The data consist of 51400 W+/- -> e+/- nu decay candidates from 108 pb-1 of integrated luminosity collected with the CDF detector at the Tevatron Collider. The cross sections and jet production properties have been measured for W + ≥ 1 to ≥ 4 jet events. The data are compared to predictions of leading order QCD matrix element calculations with added gluon radiation and simulated fragmentation.
