  50. Dijet Events at the Tevatron • The scattering of quarks inside the proton leads to a "jet" of particles traveling in the direction of, and taking the momentum of, the parent quark. Since there is no initial state Pt, the 2 quarks in the final state are "back to back" in azimuth. QuarkNet Presentation B. Beiersdorf, South Bend LaSalle High School and Notre Dame QuarkNet Center
