Transverse momentum as a measure of color topologies
(1997) In Physical review D: Particles and fields 55(1). p.5-9- Abstract
- Several distinct color flow topologies are possible in multiparton configurations. A method is proposed to find the correct topology, based on a minimization of the total transverse momentum of produced particles. This method is studied for three-jet [Formula presented] and four-jet [Formula presented] events. It is shown how the basic picture is smeared, especially by parton-shower activity. The method, therefore, may not be sufficient on its own, but could still be a useful complement to others, and, e.g., help provide some handle on color rearrangement effects.
