Measurement of event shapes at large momentum transfer with the ATLAS detector in pp collisions at √s =7 TeV

A measurement of event shape variables is presented for large momentum transfer proton-proton collisions using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Six event shape variables calculated using hadronic jets are studied in inclusive multi-jet events in 35 pb-1 of integrated luminosity at a...
