Center-of-mass angular distribution of prompt photons produced in pp-bar collisions at sqrt s =1.8 TeV. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Data taken with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) during the 1988-1989 run of the Tevatron are used to measure the distribution of the center-of-mass (rest frame of the initial state partons) angle between isolated prompt photons and the beam direction. The shape of the angular distribution for photon-jet events is found to be significantly different from that observed in dijet data. The QCD predictions show qualitative agreement with the observed prompt photon angular distribution. 1993 The American Physical Society.
