Z-Scaling of Jet Production at Tevatron

Abstract

New data on jet production obtained by the CDF and D0 Collaborations at the Tevatron in Run II are analyzed in the framework of z-scaling. Properties of data z-presentation are discussed. Physics interpretation of the scaling function psi(z) as a probability density to produce a particle with the formation length z is argued. It was shown that these experimental data confirm z-scaling.
