Jet Measurements and Determination of α_S at HERA
Abstract
Description
The strong coupling constant α_S can be measured in deep inelastic ep scattering by employing various methods. Recent results on the extraction of α_S using jet and event shape observables are presented. The results are found to be in good agreement with other more inclusive measurements and the world average value.
