Jet Measurements and Determination of \alpha_S at HERA

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The strong coupling constant \alpha_S can be measured in deep inelastic ep scattering by employing various methods. Recent results on the extraction of \alpha_S using jet and event shape observables are presented. The results are found to be in good agreement with other more inclusive measurements and the world average value.
