$m_{b}(m_{Z})$ from jet production at the $Z$ peak in the Cambridge algorithm

Two ratios of two- and three-jet heavy quark production rates in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation at the $Z$ peak are presented at next-to-leading order for the Cambridge jet-clustering algorithm. We study the uncertainties due to the unknowledge of higher order corrections. We show that for one of the ratios...

description Two ratios of two- and three-jet heavy quark production rates in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation at the $Z$ peak are presented at next-to-leading order for the Cambridge jet-clustering algorithm. We study the uncertainties due to the unknowledge of higher order corrections. We show that for one of the ratios, when expressed in terms of the running mass at the $m_Z$ scale, the results are particularly stable with respect to the change in the renormalization scale. The experimental study of this observable opens the possibility for an improvement in the measurement of $m_b(m_Z)$ made by DELPHI, thus confirming the running of the $b$-quark mass.

We study the uncertainties due to the unknowledge of higher order corrections. We show that for one of the ratios, when expressed in terms of the running mass at the $m_Z$ scale, the results are particularly stable with respect to the change in the renormalization scale. The experimental study of this observable opens the possibility for an improvement in the measurement of $m_b(m_Z)$ made by DELPHI, thus confirming the running of the $b$-quark mass.We consider the production of heavy quark jets at the $Z$-pole at the next-to-leading order (NLO) using the {\it Cambridge jet-algorithm}. We study the effects of the quark mass in two- and three-jet observables and the uncertainty due to unknown higher order corrections as well as due to fragmentation. We found that the three-jet observable has remarkably small NLO corrections, which are stable with respect to the change of the renormalization scale, when expressed in terms of the {\it running quark mass} at the $m_Z$-scale. The size of the hadronization uncertainty for this observable remains reasonably small and is very stable with respect to changes in the jet resolution parameter $y_c$.hep-ph/9807489FTUV-98-61IFIC-98-62FTUV-98-61IFIC-98-62oai:cds.cern.ch:3607881998-07-27
