Invariant Mass Distribution of Jet Pairs Produced in Association with a W Boson in p[overbar p] Collisions at [sqrt]s=1.96 TeV
We report a study of the invariant mass distribution of jet pairs produced in association with a W boson using data collected with the CDF detector which correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.3 fb[superscript -1]. The observed distribution has an excess in the 120–160 GeV/c[superscript 2] ma...

| Summary: | We report a study of the invariant mass distribution of jet pairs produced in association with a W boson using data collected with the CDF detector which correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.3 fb[superscript -1]. The observed distribution has an excess in the 120–160 GeV/c[superscript 2] mass range which is not described by current theoretical predictions within the statistical and systematic uncertainties. In this Letter, we report studies of the properties of this excess. |
