However one high precision result that currently significantly differs from the world average are results from event shapes at electron positron colliders. One possible source for the difference in these results could be the degeneracy between the fit of the strong coupling constant and...

Geometry tagging is an experimental analysis technique for selecting event samples where we can, on a statistical basis, control the geometry of the collision in order to make more incisive physics measurements. This technique has been heavily exploited in heavy ion (AA) collisions at RHIC and the LHC, and played an essential role in the discovery and detailed characterization of the quark...

The longitudinal double-spin asymmetry $A_{LL}$ in spin-polarized $p+p$ collisions provides insight into the gluon contribution to the proton's spin by accessing the gluon helicity distribution $\Delta$g. Prior RHIC 200 GeV measurements show non-zero asymmetries and hence indicate a nonzero contribution of gluon helicity to the proton spin $\Delta$G for the Bjorken-$x$ range $x > 0.05$ in the...
