Soft QCD contributes to all observables at the LHC, due to the presences of underlying event (UE) and pile-up in all events. Both these processes are dominated by multi-parton interactions (MPI), i.e. the result of proton collisions…
The early minimum bias and the QCD results from the ATLAS experiment in the LHC are presented.
QCD predicts soft radiation patterns that are particularly simple for $W+ {jet}$ production. We demonstrate how these patterns can be used to distinguish between the parton-level subprocesses probabilistically on an event-by-event basis. As…
We investigate small-x QCD effects in forward-jet production in deep inelastic scattering in the kinematic regime where the virtuality of the photon and the transverse momentum of the jet are two hard scales of about the same magnitude. We…
