K. Abe et al., STUDY OF THE ORIENTATION AND ENERGY PARTITION OF 3-JET EVENTS IN HADRONIC Z(0) DECAYS, Physical review. D. Particles and fields, 55(5), 1997, pp. 2533-2545
We have measured the distributions of the jet energies in e(+)e(-) -->
q(q) over barg$ events, and of the three orientation angles of the ev
ent plane. using hadronic Z(0) decays collected in the SLD experiment
at SLAG. We find that the data are well described by perturbative QCD
incorporating vector gluons. We have also studied models of scalar and
tensor gluon production and find them to be incompatible with our dat
a.
