Rivet analyses

Measurement of the inclusive isolated prompt photon cross-section

Experiment: CDF (Tevatron Run 2)

Inspire ID: 834437

Status: VALIDATED

Authors: - Frank Siegert

References: - arXiv: 0910.3623

Beams: p- p+

Beam energies: (980.0, 980.0)GeV

Run details: - γ + jet processes in ppbar collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1960$~GeV. Minimum pT cut on the photon in the analysis is 30~GeV.

A measurement of the cross section for the inclusive production of isolated photons. The measurement covers the pseudorapidity region |ηγ| < 1.0 and the transverse energy range ETγ > 30~GeV and is based on 2.5~fb−1 of integrated luminosity. The cross section is measured differential in E⟂(γ).
