Measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV
Abstract: A measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section, as a function of jet transverse momentum $p_\mathrm{T}$ and absolute jet rapidity $|y|$, is presented. The analysis is based on a data set of proton-proton collisions acquired by the CMS experiment at the LHC during 2015 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The collected data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72 pb$^{-1}$ for rapidities up to $|y|=$ 3 and 45 pb$^{-1}$ for the forward rapidity region 3.2 $<|y|<$ 4.7. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-$k_{\mathrm{T}}$ clustering algorithm for two jet size parameters $R=$ 0.7 and $R=$ 0.4 in a phase space region covering jet $p_\mathrm{T}$ up to 2 TeV and jet rapidity up to $|y| =$ 4.7. The results are compared to fixed-order predictions of perturbative QCD and to simulations using various Monte Carlo event generators including parton showers, hadronisation, and multiparton interactions.
