  We study the behavior of the charged particle and energy components of the
"underlying event" in hard scattering proton-antiproton collisions at 1.96TeV.
The goal is to produce data on the "underlying event" that is corrected to the
particle level so that it can be used to tune the QCD Monte-Carlo models
without requiring CDF detector simulation. Unlike the previous CDF Run 2
"underlying event" analysis which used JetClu to define "jets" and compared
uncorrected data with the QCD Monte-Carlo models after detector simulation
(i.e., CDFSIM), this analysis uses the MidPoint jet algorithm and corrects the
observables to the particle level. The corrected observables are then compared
with the QCD Monde-Carlo models at the particle level (i.e., generator level).
The QCD Monte-Carlo models include PYTHIA Tune A, HERWIG, and a tuned version
of JIMMY.
