Abstract

We study the factorization scheme dependence of the next-to-leading order inclusive one jet cross section dσ/dET. The scheme is varied parametrically along the direction that transforms the MS¯ scheme to the DIS scheme: we introduce a parameter λ such that λ=0 is MS¯ and λ=1 is DIS. The factorization scale μ is also varied. We observe a change of ±9% in the cross section for ET=50GeV when μ and λ are varied in the range 2<~λ<~2,ET/8<~μ<~2ET. This grows to ±32% for ET=400GeV.
