QCD Corrections to Jet Cross Sections in DIS

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

Next-to-leading order corrections to jet cross sections in deep inelastic scattering at HERA are studied. The predicted jet rates allow for a precise determination of αs(μR)\alpha_s(\mu_R) at HERA over a wide range of μR\mu_R. We argue, that the ``natural'' renormalization and factorization scale is set by the average kTBk_T^B of the jets in the Breit frame and suggest to divide the data in corresponding <kTB><k_T^B> intervals. Some implications for the determination of the gluon density and the associated forward jet production in the low xx regime at HERA are briefly discussed.
