Determination of the strong coupling constant using inclusive jet cross section data from multiple experiments
Inclusive jet cross section measurements from the ATLAS, CDF, CMS, D0, H1, STAR, and ZEUS experiments are explored for determinations of the strong coupling constant αs(MZ)αs(MZ)\alpha _{\text {s}} (M_{\text {Z}}). Various jet cross section data sets are reviewed, their consistency is examined, and...

| Summary: | Inclusive jet cross section measurements from the ATLAS, CDF, CMS, D0, H1, STAR, and ZEUS experiments are explored for determinations of the strong coupling constant αs(MZ)αs(MZ)\alpha _{\text {s}} (M_{\text {Z}}). Various jet cross section data sets are reviewed, their consistency is examined, and the benefit of their simultaneous inclusion in the αs(MZ)αs(MZ)\alpha _{\text {s}} (M_{\text {Z}}) determination is demonstrated. Different methods for the statistical analysis of these data are compared and one method is proposed for a coherent treatment of all data sets. While the presented studies are based on next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD), they lay the groundwork for determinations of αs(MZ)αs(MZ)\alpha _{\text {s}} (M_{\text {Z}}) at next-to-next-to-leading order. |
