Extracting αS from TEVATRON data

  • 1. Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, P.O. Box 500, Batavia, Illinois 6-510 (United States)

Description

In this contribution we explore one of the many possibilities of determining the strong coupling constant αS at hadron colliders. The method considered is quite unique compared to other methods in that the value of αS is determined by the 'evolution rate' of the parton density functions rather than by the 'event rate'
