Event shape observables
The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. (November 2021) |
In high energy physics, Event shapes observables are quantities used to characterize the geometry of the outcome of a collision between high energy particles in a collider. Specifically, event shapes observables quantify the general pattern traced by the trajectories of the particles resulting from the collision.[1][2]
The most common event shape observables include:
- The sphericity;
- The aplanarity;
- The thrust.
- The C-parameter;
- The jet broadening.
