The production of jets is studied in deep-inelastic e+p scattering at low negative four momentum transfer squared 5<Q^2<100 GeV^2 and at inelasticity 0.2<y<0.7 using data recorded by the H1 detector at HERA in the years 1999 and 2000, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 43.5 pb^-1. Inclusive jet, 2-jet and 3-jet cross sections as well as the ratio of 3-jet to 2-jet cross sections are measured as a function of Q^2 and jet transverse momentum. The 2-jet cross section is also measured as a function of the proton momentum fraction xi. The measurements are well described by perturbative quantum chromodynamics at next-to-leading order corrected for hadronisation effects and are subsequently used to extract the strong coupling alpha_s.

  1. A generalised-$k_t$ jet algorithm for Deep Inelastic Scattering

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The authors define a generalised-k_t jet algorithm family for DIS in the Breit frame, extending the prior p=0 case, and test its use for struck-quark jet identification and non-perturbative effects.
