| Abstract: Inclusive jet spectra from pp and PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, are presented. Jets are reconstructed with three different distance parameters (R = 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4) for transverse momentum (${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$) greater than 70 GeV/$c$ and pseudorapidity $| {\eta} | < $ 2. Next-to-leading-order quantum chromodynamic calculations with non-perturbative corrections are found to over-predict jet production cross sections in pp for small distance parameters. The jet nuclear modification factors for PbPb compared to pp collisions, show a steady decrease from peripheral to central events, along with a weak dependence on the jet ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$. They are found to be independent of the distance parameter in the measured kinematic range. | ||

Raw subtracted ${p_{\mathrm {T}}}$ for jets reconstructed with the anti-$ {k_{\mathrm {T}}}$ algorithm and a distance parameter of $ {R} = $ 0.3, in the ranges 70 $ < \text {jet} \, {p_{\mathrm {T}}} < $ 80 GeV/$c$ (top panels) and 110 $ < \text {jet} \, {p_{\mathrm {T}}} < $ 130 GeV/$c$ (bottom panels). This quantity is found by taking the difference of the sum of PF candidates within the jet cone and raw jet ${p_{\mathrm {T}}}$. Solid symbols show data, and the histogram is from PYTHIA+HYDJET generated events. |

Table 1:
Summary of the systematic uncertainties in the PbPb jet yield for the central (0-5%), peripheral (70-90%) bins, and the pp jet cross section. Each column showcases the total systematic uncertainties for the corresponding source for the different $ {R} $ and two jet ${p_{\mathrm {T}}}$ ranges i.e. 70 $ < \text {jet} \, {p_{\mathrm {T}}} < $ 80 GeV/$c$ and 250 $ < \text {jet} \, {p_{\mathrm {T}}} < $ 300 GeV/$c$). The $ {T_\mathrm {AA}} $ uncertainties are not shown in the table. Other sources mentioned in the text that are smaller than 1% are not listed explicitly below. |
| Summary |
| The cross section of anti-$k_{\mathrm{T}}$ particle-flow jets has been measured in pp and PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = $ 2.76 TeV for distance parameters ${R} = $ 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 in $| {\eta} | < $ 2 and for jet ${p_{\mathrm{T}}} $ above 70 GeV/$c$. It is found that next-to-leading order calculations with non-perturbative corrections over predict the pp cross sections, with a smaller discrepancy for larger distance parameters. The PbPb inclusive jet nuclear modification factors show a steady decrease from peripheral to central events, with a slight rise with jet ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$. No significant dependence of the jet nuclear modification factor on the distance parameter is found for the jets in the kinematic range measured in this analysis. |
