Measurement of Dijet Angular Distributions and Search for Quark Compositeness

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We have measured the dijet angular distribution in s\sqrt{s}=1.8 TeV ppˉp\bar{p} collisions using the D0 detector. Order αs3\alpha^{3}_{s} QCD predictions are in good agreement with the data. At 95% confidence the data exclude models of quark compositeness in which the contact interaction scale is below 2 TeV.
