Abstract
Inclusive jet production, e+e(-) --> e(+)e(-) jet X, is studied using 560 pb(-1) of data collected at LEP with the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV. The inclusive differential cross section is measured using a k(1), jet algorithm as a function of the jet transverse momentum, p(t), in the range 3 < p(t) < 50 GeV for a pseudorapidity, eta, in the range -1 < eta < 1. This cross section is well represented by a power law. For high p(t), the measured cross section is significantly higher than the NLO QCD predictions, as already observed for inclusive pi(+/-) and pi(0) production. (C) 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V.
