Detection of minijet production in $\sqrt{s}$=1.8 TeV proton-antiproton collisions with multi-particle transverse energy correlation functions

Abstract

Multi-particle transverse energy correlation(MTEC) functions are proposed to study minijet production in high energy proton-antiproton collisions. Obtainable with both the D0 and the CDF detector, the high-order MTEC functions are shown to be sensitive probes of jet internal structure as well as promising observables of detecting minijet production in $\sqrt{s}$=1.8 TeV $p\bar{p}$ collisions.
