Outline

  • Parton fragments in single-particle spectra
  • Two-particle fragment distributions on rapidity
  • Jet angular autocorrelations at low Q2
  • Low-Q2 physics phenomenology and LPHD
  • 1D – 2D quantitative correspondence

low-Q2 partons in p-p collisions

before we try to understand QCD in A-A collisions we should understand it in elementary collisions

Summary

  • Low-Q2 parton fragmentation in p-p is precisely

accessible down to hadron pt ≅ 0.35 GeV/c

  • Jet morphology requires new treatment of

fragment yt distributions, angular correlations

  • Low-Q2 fragment distributions exhibit interesting

systematic behavior → the physics of LPHD

  • Jet angular correlations show strong asymmetry at

low Q2, ‘remember’ parton collision details

  • Moving toward a quantitative relation between

fragment pairs and yt spectrum hard component
