Identification of jet-like events using a multiplicity detector

We present a method for studying the detection of jets in high energy hadronic collisions using multiplicity detectors at forward rapidity. Such a study enhances the physics scope of multiplicity detectors at forward rapidities in LHC. At LHC energies the jets may be produced with significant cross section at forward rapidities. A multi-resolution wavelet analysis technique can locate the spatial position of jets due to its feature of space-scale locality. The discrete wavelet proves to be very effective in probing physics simultaneously at different locations in phase space and at different scales to identify jet-like events. The key feature this analysis exploits is the difference in particle density in localized regions of the detector due to jet-like and underlying events. We find that this method has a significant sensitivity towards detecting jet position and its size. The jets can be found with the efficiency and purity of the order of 46% with a cut of three times the root mean square of the typical wavelet coefficients distribution in minimum bias events.
