Measurements of differential jet cross sections in proton-proton collisions at √s=7  TeV with the CMS detector

Abstract

Measurements of inclusive jet and dijet production cross sections are presented. Data from LHC proton-proton collisions at √s=7  TeV, corresponding to 5.0  fb−1 of integrated luminosity, have been collected with the CMS detector. Jets are reconstructed up to rapidity 2.5, transverse momentum 2 TeV, and dijet invariant mass 5 TeV, using the anti-kT clustering algorithm with distance parameter R=0.7. The measured cross sections are corrected for detector effects and compared to perturbative QCD predictions at next-to-leading order, using five sets of parton distribution functions.
