Jet kinematic distributions in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$900~GeV with the ATLAS detector

Distributions of kinematic variables of jets produced in soft proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy sqrt(s) =900 GeV are measured with the ATLAS detector. The data were collected in December 2009. Jets with low transverse momenta are reconstructed with the anti-kt algorithm, with a rad...

Sumario:Distributions of kinematic variables of jets produced in soft proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy sqrt(s) =900 GeV are measured with the ATLAS detector. The data were collected in December 2009. Jets with low transverse momenta are reconstructed with the anti-kt algorithm, with a radius parameter R=0.6. The transverse momentum and the pseudo-rapidity distributions of the jets as well as the azimuthal difference between the two highest pT jets are measured. The Monte-Carlo simulation modeling soft proton-proton collisions in the ATLAS detector describes the data well.
