A thorough analysis is presented of the hadronic transverse energy produced in association with W± and Z0 weak bosons at p {Mathematical expression} colliders. The complete rapidity and transverse energy distributions are derived, including the perturbative annihilation and Compton terms and the resummation of soft gluons. The first non leading corrections to the corresponding Sudakov exponent are included in full and their effects are discussed. To make contact with the actual data a number of non perturbative inputs is also necessary. We extract this information from minimum bias measurements. A detailed comparison of the resulting theoretical predictions with the available experimental data is finally presented. © 1986 Springer-Verlag.

Abstract
A thorough analysis is presented of the hadronic transverse energy produced in association with W± and Z0 weak bosons at p {Mathematical expression} colliders. The complete rapidity and transverse energy distributions are derived, including the perturbative annihilation and Compton terms and the resummation of soft gluons. The first non leading corrections to the corresponding Sudakov exponent are included in full and their effects are discussed. To make contact with the actual data a number of non perturbative inputs is also necessary. We extract this information from minimum bias measurements. A detailed comparison of the resulting theoretical predictions with the available experimental data is finally presented. © 1986 Springer-Verlag.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
