TY - JOUR T1 - Measurement of colour flow with the jet pull angle in t\(\overline{t}\) events using the ATLAS detector at \(\sqrt {s}\)=8 TeV JF - Physics Letters B N2 - The distribution and orientation of energy inside jets is predicted to be an experimental handle on colour connections between the hard-scatter quarks and gluons initiating the jets. This Letter presents a measurement of the distribution of one such variable, the jet pull angle. The pull angle is measured for jets produced in t\(\overline{t}\) events with one W boson decaying leptonically and the other decaying to jets using 20.3 fb\(^{−1}\) of data recorded with the ATLAS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of \(\sqrt {s}\)=8 TeV at the LHC. The jet pull angle distribution is corrected for detector resolution and acceptance effects and is compared to various models.
