Measurement of Dijet Angular Distributions at s=1.96 TeV and Searches for Quark Compositeness and Extra Spatial Dimensions
2009
We present the first measurement of dijet angular distributions in ppbar collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96TeV at the
Fermilab
TevatronCollider. The measurement is based on a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 0.7fb-1 collected with the D0 detector. Dijet angular distributions have been measured over a range of dijet masses, from 0.25TeV to above 1.1TeV. The data are in good agreement with the predictions of
perturbative QCDand are used to constrain new physics models including quark compositeness,
large extra dimensions, and TeV-1 scale
extra dimensions. For all models we set the most stringent
direct limitsto date.
