Measurement of the Underlying Event and Minimum Bias at LHC

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2008-06-17 v1

Abstract

A study of Underlying Events (UE) and Minimum Bias (MB) at Large Hadron Collider (LHC)with CMS and ATLAS detector under nominal conditions is discussed. Using charged particle and charged particle jets, it will be possible to discriminate between various QCD models with different multiple parton interaction schemes, which correctly reproduce Tevatron data but give different predictions when extrapolated to the LHC energy. This will permit improving and tuning Monte Carlo models at LHC start-up, and opens prospects for exploring QCD dynamics in proton-proton collisions at 14TeV.
