However, in nature, we observe hadrons:Color-neutral combinations of quarks, anti-quarks

Asymptotic freedom and pQCD
At large Q2, hard processes: calculate ‘free parton scattering’
At high energies, quarks and gluons are manifest

Accelerators and colliders
• p+p colliders (fixed target+ISR, SPPS, TevaTron, LHC)– Low-density QCD
– Broad set of production mechanisms
• Electron-positron colliders (SLC, LEP)– Electroweak physics
– Clean, exclusive processes
– Measure fragmentation functions
• ep, p accelerators (SLC, SPS, HERA)– Deeply Inelastic Scattering, proton structure
– Parton density functions
• Heavy ion accelerators/colliders (AGS, SPS, RHIC, LHC)– Bulk QCD and Quark Gluon Plasma
Many decisive QCD measurements done

Dominant ‘theory’ uncertainty: PDFs
Theory matches data over many orders of magnitude

However: signficant uncertainties in energy scale, both ‘theory’ and
experiment

Heavy quark fragmentation
Light quarks Heavy quarks
Heavy quark fragmentation: leading heavy meson carries large momentum fraction
Less gluon radiation than for light quarks, due to ‘dead cone’
![Page 31: Lecture I: introduction to QCD Marco van Leeuwen Utrecht University Jyväskylä Summer School 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f3b5503460f94c59208/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Dead cone effect
Radiated wave front cannot out-run source quark
Heavy quark: < 1
Result: minimum angle for radiation Mass regulates collinear divergence

Summary
• QCD is theory of strong interactions– Fundamental d.o.f quarks and gluons– Ground state: hadrons (bound states)
• Perturbative QCD, asymptotic freedom at high Q2, small distances
• Factorisation for pQCD at hadron colliders:– DIS to measure proton structure– e+ e- to measure fragmentation functions– Calculate jet, hadron spectra at hadron colliders
