Experimental Aspects of Jet Physics at a Future EIC

Abstract

In this work, we present an overview of experimental considerations relevant to the utilization of jets at a future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a subject which has been largely overlooked up to this point. A comparison of jet-finding algorithms and resolution parameters is presented along with a detailed analysis of basic jet quantities, such as multiplicities and kinematic distributions. A characterization of the energy in the event not associated with a jet is also made. In addition, detector requirements and the effects of realistic detector resolutions are discussed. Finally, an example analysis is presented in which dijets are used to access the gluon helicity contribution to the spin of the proton.
