Three-jet distributions ine + e − annihilation: Electromagnetic and weak production

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

Hard gluon bremsstrahlung off quarks ine + e − annihilation is expected to produce three-jet events. The angular distributions of the jets are calculated for electromagnetic and weak production in the high energy region (Z resonance decay included). Numerical estimates are presented for the vectoraxialvector interference terms within the Weinberg-Salam theory. We discuss (i) angular correlations between jets, (ii) semiinclusive pion distributions and (iii) we comment on angular asymmetries of leptons originating from heavy quark decays.
