Determination of the Strong Coupling Constant αs in Multijet Production with the ATLAS Detector at the LHC

A measurement of transverse energy–energy correlations and its asymmetry in [Formula: see text] collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC at [Formula: see text] TeV is presented. The results are used to determine the strong coupling constant [Formula: see text]. A global fit to the transverse energy–energy correlation distributions yields [Formula: see text], while a global fit to the corresponding asymmetry distributions yields a value of [Formula: see text].
