Abstract: (APS)

A measurement of the inclusive production cross section of isolated prompt photons in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energy s=1.96 TeV is presented. The results are obtained using the full Run II data sample collected with the Collider Detector at the Fermilab Tevatron, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 9.5 fb-1. The cross section is measured as a function of photon transverse energy, ETγ, in the range 30

Note:

[7]

A cylindrical coordinate system (r, φ, z) is used with origin at the geometric center of the detector

[7]

r is the radius from the nominal beam line, φ is the azimuthal angle, and the +z axis points along the incident proton beam direction. The polar angle θ with respect to the proton beam is used to define the pseudorapidity η = - ln(tan(θ/2)). Transverse energy and transverse momentum are defined as ET = E sin(θ) and pT = p sin(θ), respectively. The missing transverse energy is given by ET = - i Ei where i is the calorimeter tower number and ˆni is a unit vector perpendicular to the beam axis and pointing at the ith calorimeter tower
