Measurements of the event shapes and underlying event in pp collisions at 7 TeV

The high-energy pp collisions at the LHC provide unique opportunity to study particle flow and event shapes of the hadronic final state particles.

Sumario:The high-energy pp collisions at the LHC provide unique opportunity to study particle flow and event shapes of the hadronic final state particles. Evolution of the event shape variables, such as the transverse thrust, thrust minor and transverse sphericity have been studied for minimum bias events. Particle distributions sensitive to the underlying event have been measured using calorimeter jet events. Separate inclusive jet and exclusive dijet event selections are included in this study for various observables. The data are compared with predictions from several MC simulations.
