Measurement of the primary Lund jet plane density in proton-proton collisions at $ \sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV
Accepted for publication in J. High Energy Phys.
Abstract: A measurement is presented of the primary Lund jet plane (LJP) density in inclusive jet production in proton-proton collisions. The analysis uses 138 fb$ ^{-1} $ of data collected by the CMS experiment at $ \sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV. The LJP, a representation of the phase space of emissions inside jets, is constructed using iterative jet declustering. The transverse momentum $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ and the splitting angle $ \Delta R $ of an emission relative to its emitter are measured at each step of the jet declustering process. The average density of emissions as function of $ \ln(k_{\mathrm{T}}/$GeV$)$ and $ \ln(R/\Delta R) $ is measured for jets with distance parameters $ R = $ 0.4 or 0.8, transverse momentum $ p_{\mathrm{T}} > $ 700 GeV, and rapidity $ |y| < $ 1.7. The jet substructure is measured using the charged-particle tracks of the jet. The measured distributions, unfolded to the level of stable particles, are compared with theoretical predictions from simulations and with perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations. Due to the ability of the LJP to factorize physical effects, these measurements can be used to improve different aspects of the physics modeling in event generators.

Figure 2:
Schematic diagram of the mechanisms affecting different regions of the primary LJP in a given proton-proton collision. Initial-state radiation (ISR), the underlying event (UE) activity, and multiple-parton interactions (MPI) affect wide-angle radiation at $ \Delta R \sim R $, close to the boundary of the jet. In an experimental context, pileup contributes to the same region as the UE. Hadronization affects the low $ \ln(k_{\mathrm{T}}/$GeV$)$ region (below $ k_{\mathrm{T}} \sim $ 1 GeV) at all angles. Soft and hard collinear parton splittings affect the rest of the LJP. The diagonal line represents the kinematical limit of the primary LJP, which corresponds to $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{j_1} = p_{\mathrm{T}}^{j_2} $.

Measured LJP distribution for AK8 jets, compared with the leading-order perturbative-QCD asymptotic prediction in the soft and collinear limit. The grey boxes represent the total experimental uncertainty from the measured data. For the prediction, an effective color factor of $ C_{\mathrm{R}}^{\text{eff}} = 0.59 C_{\mathrm{F}}+0.41 C_{\mathrm{A}} \approx $ 2 is assumed, as described in the text. The strong coupling $ \alpha_\mathrm{S} $ evolves with $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ using the one-loop $ \beta $ function with $ \alpha_\mathrm{S} (m_\mathrm{Z}) = $ 0.118. The theoretical uncertainty band is calculated with variations of the renormalization scale up and down by factors of 2. The discontinuity is due to the change of the number of active flavors when $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ reaches the mass of the bottom quark, which is assumed to be 4.2 GeV.

Summary
We have presented a measurement of the primary Lund jet plane (LJP) density in inclusive jet production in proton-proton collisions at $ \sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$ ^{-1} $, collected in Run 2 (2016-2018) with the CMS experiment. The LJP is a two-dimensional representation of the phase space of emissions inside a jet constructed using iterative Cambridge-Aachen declustering. The logarithm of the relative transverse momentum $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ of the emission and the logarithm of the opening angle of the branching $ \Delta R $ are used for the vertical and horizontal axes of the LJP. We analyzed the substructure of jets initially clustered with the anti-$ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ algorithm with transverse momentum $ p_{\mathrm{T}} > $ 700 GeV and rapidity $ |y| < $ 1.7 clustered with distance parameters $ R = $ 0.4 or 0.8. The smaller $ R = $ 0.4 is the standard $ R $ for Run 2 analyses. The larger $ R = $ 0.8, used for the first time in a measurement of the primary LJP density, enables the exploration of a broader kinematical region of the LJP that is inaccessible with the $ R = $ 0.4 parameter value, particularly for wide-angle, hard radiation. Clustering effects associated with the initial anti-$ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ clustering have a less strong effect in the collinear region with the larger $ R $ value; hence the angular region where the emission density plateaus is wider for $ R = $ 0.8 jets. The corrected distributions have an experimental uncertainty in a range of 2-7% in the region away from the kinematical LJP edge and about 15-25% close to the LJP edge. We compared the corrected primary LJP density with various particle-level predictions from Monte Carlo (MC) simulated events. The predictions use different implementations of parton showers as well as different models for the underlying-event (UE) activity, beam-beam remnants, hadronization, and color reconnection effects. The aforementioned mechanisms can be effectively factorized in the primary LJP density, which allows for strong constraints in terms of the substructure of jets. At leading-logarithmic (LL) accuracy, the primary LJP density is proportional to the strong coupling $ \alpha_\mathrm{S}(k_{\mathrm{T}}) $, so it can be used to tune the value of $ \alpha_\mathrm{S} $ evaluated at the Z boson mass used for final-state radiation (FSR) in MC event generators, $ \alpha_\mathrm{S}^\mathrm{FSR}(m_\mathrm{Z}) $. Predictions generated with the CP5 tune of the PYTHIA8 generator underestimate the measured density of emissions in the perturbative region ($ k_{\mathrm{T}} > $ 5 GeV) by about 15% because of the small value of $ \alpha_\mathrm{S}^\mathrm{FSR}(m_\mathrm{Z}) $ used for this tune. Other PYTHIA8 tunes or parton shower options tested in the measurement are in better agreement with the data. The predictions generated with the angular-ordered shower of the HERWIG 7.2.0 generator are in better agreement with the data than those generated with its alternative dipole shower. The data were also compared with different recoil schemes of the angular-ordered shower of HERWIG 7, which allow the parton shower to reach up to next-to-LL (NLL) accuracy for certain global observables. The HERWIG 7 predictions with the dot-product preserving recoil scheme, together with a veto on high-virtuality partons, have the best global agreement with the data among the generators tested in the measurement. The low-$ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ region is dominated by hadronization effects in a wide range of $ \Delta R $ values, with additional contributions from the UE at large $ \Delta R \approx R $. The predictions based on cluster fragmentation models, such as those generated with HERWIG 7 or SHERPA 2 generators, are in better agreement with the data at low $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ for a wide range of $ \Delta R $ values than those of PYTHIA8. The PYTHIA8 predictions, where hadronization is described with the Lund string fragmentation model, overestimate the LJP density by about 15-20% for $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ at the GeV scale for a wide range of $ \Delta R $ values. One possibility to improve the description of the low $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ region is to include the FSR cutoff $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ as a free parameter in future event generator tuning; a larger FSR cutoff $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ value decreases the density of emissions at low $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ in the LJP without affecting the high-$ k_{\mathrm{T}} $ region that is dominated by the parton shower. Finally, the data are also compared with a perturbative QCD calculation with a resummation at NLL accuracy, which is matched to a fixed-order next-to-leading order calculation [10]. To compare with the measured LJP at hadron level, nonperturbative corrections are supplemented to the calculation. The predictions are in agreement with the data within the theoretical and experimental uncertainties. For collinear emissions, the data can be qualitatively described with the running of $ \alpha_\mathrm{S} $ with $ k_{\mathrm{T}} $. These measurements highlight the different aspects of the physics modeling of event generators that should be improved, ranging from the modeling of hadronization and up to the logarithmic accuracy of parton showering algorithms.
