Determination of the strong coupling constant from inclusive jet cross section data from multiple experiments

Abstract

Inclusive jet cross section measurements from the ATLAS, CDF, CMS, D0, H1, STAR, and ZEUS experiments are explored for determinations of the strong coupling constant ${\alpha }_{\text{s}}(M_{\text{Z}})$. Various jet cross section data sets are reviewed, their consistency is examined, and the benefit of their simultaneous inclusion in the ${\alpha }_{\text{s}}(M_{\text{Z}})$ determination is demonstrated. Different methods for the statistical analysis of these data are compared and one method is proposed for a coherent treatment of all data sets. While the presented studies are based on next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD), they lay the groundwork for determinations of ${\alpha }_{\text{s}}(M_{\text{Z}})$ at next-to-next-to-leading order.
