Abstract
Jet structure and planarity are studied for 1f p reactions at 147 GeV/c using the Proportional Wire Hybrid Spectrometer. The analytical tools used in the investigation include invariants of the momentum tensor for each event and simple models used for comparison with the data. Jet structure is found to be closely associated with leading particle production. In the central region, jet structure is seen to be absent. No strong evidence for planarity is seen. Certain cuts on the tensor invariants are found to greatly enhance rho 0 production.
